No. Even we set the concurrency=1, the issue may still occur.
os.maxMemory >= 10g just check whether the capacity of physical memory 
is >= 10g, not the available memory to be used.

Our test machine has only 16GB physical memory and is shared by many 
people in our group.
The test seems to fail occasionally especially when the test machine is 
busy.
I'm trying to find a better solution to this problem.

Best regards,
Jie
