Bug #1325: fiber tests kill windows
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1325

Author: Charlie Savage
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
Target version: 1.9.1
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.2dev (2009-03-29) [i386-mswin32_90]

If run on its own, test_fiber.rb runs fine on windows (VC2008 as compiler).  But when run as part of the full test_suite, it eventually uses so much memory to cause windows to stop responding, start disk swapping, and finally to kill the ruby process.  This consistently happens.

Reducing the number of created fibers solves the issue (patch attached), but that's surely masking some deeper issue.
