my case, I just beat together more basic tests and verified output 
manually...

however, in my case I also have an even more debatable feature:
128 bit pointers...

basic idea: 16 bit tag, 48 bit segment, 64 bit offset.
purpose: persistent storage, possibly DSM.
why such big segments: so they can be unique and generated with an RNG.
