For some reason logging to syslog on TravisCI become very slow. For exmaple, following appctl call took around 3 seconds:
14:52:27.095Z|00637| received: OFPST_TABLE request (xid=0x2): 14:52:29.884Z|00638| sent (Success): OFPST_TABLE reply (xid=0x2) In this situation testsuite spends all the available 50 minutes to execute only ~950 tests. Disabling the rsyslog daemon allowes testsuite to finish in a reasonable time.
