I should be pushing that - too busy.

Gen stats and the estimator as well are independent and i should be able

Maybe I should be pushing this first.
Note, the old code didnt have any flushing or dumping of tables which
is a different code path (L2C was ready for it).

lets take advantage of it.
Shall i push L2c and the stats stuff first?
