Michael A. Smith commented on AVRO-2630:
----------------------------------------

I think another thing that might help is making the interop tests themselves 
faster. Looking at test_rpc_interop.sh, I noticed that it iterates over every 
combination of language pairs (and rpc messages and functions), and starts a 
new server for every combination. It then waits for that server to come up, 
which never takes less than a second. It probably ought to recycle the running 
servers when it can. I believe this will shave a significant amount of time off 
this test.

...however, things are never simple, and I notice that the python servers exit 
as soon as they've fulfilled one request, so that would need to get fixed first.

> Single "jobs" on travis are [limited to 50 
> minutes|https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/customizing-the-build/#build-timeouts].
>   A "normal" build takes 47-48 minutes and can occasionally bump over the 
> limit, causing timeout errors.
> We can see that this happens occasionally on master and on pull requests.
> We should find a strategy to limit the length of time for a of the jobs being 
> run.
