Holomark2_R6 stops prematurely in V7. Runs properly in V6 and V8

When run in V7 on my desktop Holomark2_R6 stops prematurely, and not always after the same step. Frequently it stops after
GPU_06 Test took :0.5 sec @ 200.0 fps.
Most recently it stopped after
GPU_13 Test took :0.05 sec @ 2000.0 fps.(Command line history from this is below.)

Holomark2_R6 in V7 may have completed once but I did not save the results.

Holomark2_R6 completes when used in V6 and V8.

Thanks, I’ll sit down and take a look when I have some time to dig deeply into this. Right now all I have time for is some mental relaxation when modelling a SubD car.

Hopefully I can finalize HM3 soon too, so you don’t have to use the old HM2 test.
