Yes.

However, Rene runs the RSI tests. He uses buildbot, so these tests are
incremental, too.

 If so, would you mind deleting intermediate

This *could* be a buildbot related issue. Of course, there could be
other reasons, e.g. the compiler produces binaries for a CPU other than
the one the tests run on (I recently got caught by that problem when I
tried to create binaries for a VIA C3 based system. Symptom: everything
worked except for one program).

I'll delete the capacity test results on my disk in order to make sure
I'm not producing stale good results.
