    maint: disable garbage collector during individual test cases.
    
    This reduced overhead of garbage collection from 50 percent to 20 percent in
    my test runs, and reduced wall-time to match.  This seems to be a reasonable
    win: we allow the GC to run on demand, but only outside the testing.
    
    Memory use went from ~ 300MB to ~550MB between runs, which suggests that we
    are generating a *lot* of garbage at times, but that we also benefit from
    cleaning it automatically on a regular basis.
