It keeps track of what it's already done -- the tracking is by filename,
so it's not necessarily useful if the sqlite DB is moved outside of the
VM (though you could go in and fix it manually if you felt inspired to),
but it should be fine as far as things done within the VM itself. The
submit.log tracking is separate -- that's entirely human-oriented and
for your own use.

I'll let Rob or someone else more familiar with the particular VM setup
address the question of stopping it (for running it directly, it's just
ctrl-c, but since this is running automatically in the background that
won't do anything).
