Hi,

Isn't this going to pick same key over and over again?

Say maxnprocs is '1', and MSGMNI is 10000:
  dotest_iteration(i*(10000 / 1));
will become:
  key = keyarray[(10000 + 0) % 10000];
  key = keyarray[(20000 + 0) % 10000];
  key = keyarray[(30000 + 0) % 10000];
  ...

If test intention is to exercise queues for all keys, shouldn't we fix main() instead?
