Junit4 and the new HBaseTestingUtility class that adds facility to spin up
cluster once, run a suite of tests and then shut it all down again rather
than start and stop cluster per test is part of the speedup effort.  Other
part is tricks like Dave describes but generalizing and seeing if there are
a set of mock objects that we could come up with that would make it so
didn't have to spin up mini clusters testing components.  If there are ideas
for the latter, we'd be interested.  There is an HTableInterface and soon to
be a HRegionInterface that should help a mock objects effort.
