@pwendell I like the idea of just getting tests to run faster in general,
but I think its gonna be hard to make that happen. (Not the most exciting
tasks for beginners and I think the experienced folks have their hands full
...) This was meant to be an "easy" way to have some useful subset of tests
that developers can run locally. Its great that we have jenkins running tests
automatically, but I'd really like to improve the local development process.
Even if we do speed up the other tests, I think there are always going to
be some tests that fall into this bucket that we'd like to run, so I think this
will still be useful. But I agree that we the tests could be sped up a lot --
I made some notes on the JIRA about how even after this, eliminating (or
speeding up) a small number of tests would have huge gains.
