Stepan, I believe the test suite run time is not be a factor which affects our decision on a configuration which is used for the test run. Most of stress tests have a duration of 30 seconds, regardless of the build which is used for the testing. The total test suite run time is within 40 minutes.
You argument about testing binaries which are delivered to the customer is pretty valid from my point of view. From the other side it makes little sense to look for root enumeration errors with heap validity asserts disabled. Does anyone see how can we resolve this situation? Thanks.
