 By default, DeepState is not very verbose about testing activity,

 useful for understanding what a DeepState harness is actually doing;
 often, setting `--log_level 1` in either fuzzing or symbolic
 execution will give sufficient information to debug your test harness.
 
+## A Note on Mac OS and Forking
+
+Normally, when running a test for replay or fuzzing, DeepState forks
+in order to cleanly handle crashes of a test.  Unfortunately, `fork()`
+on mac OS is extremely slow.  When using the built-in fuzzer or
+replaying tests, it is highly recommended to add the `--no_fork`
+option on mac OS, unless you need the added crash handling (that is,
+things aren't working without that option).

 ## Built-In Fuzzer
 
 Every DeepState executable provides a simple built-in fuzzer that
