Hi Ben, I didn't know it was *that* slow on your laptop. It looks ok on
mine even it is just a VM (with 4 virtual cores, 8GB mem) on my laptop,
system responsing very well. However I agree that if you encounters such
slowness, it may happen to others, too. I will be happy to make the change
as you suggested. Could you point out the already existed heavy test cases
that are in separate testsuite? I want to make sure I refer to the right
examples before making the change. Thanks a lot!
