+// This is the bit that runs in the parent process when the test begins. Here's
+// what happens:
+//
+// - Load the entire single-process test in the parent
+// - Setup the test harness within the child process
+// - Send a command to the child to have the single-process test loaded there, as well
+// - Send a command to the child to make the predictor available
+// - run_test_real in the parent
+// - run_test_real does a bunch of pref-setting and other fun things on the parent
+// - once all that's done, it calls run_next_test IN THE PARENT
+// - every time run_next_test is called, it is called IN THE PARENT
+// - the test that gets started then does any parent-side setup that's necessary
+// - once the parent-side setup is done, it calls continue_<testname> IN THE CHILD
+// - when the test is done running on the child, the child calls predictor.reset
+// this causes some code to be run on the parent which, when complete, sends an
+// obserer service notification IN THE PARENT, which causes run_next_test to be
+// called again, bumping us up to the top of the loop outlined here
+// - when the final test is done, cleanup happens IN THE PARENT and we're done
+//
+// This is a little confusing, but it's what we have to do in order to have some
+// things that must run on the parent (the setup - opening cache entries, etc)
+// but with most of the test running on the child (calls to the predictor api,
+// verification, etc).
