New description:
There are several improvements that would be good to make, including but
not limited to:
1. Forking rather than starting up a new Sage each time.
1. Customizable comparison rather than mutating doctests into new
doctests (e.g. followup to #10952).
1. Eliminate need to write temporary files for every doctested file.
1. Constant headaches caused by the difference in doctesting library vs.
non-library files.
1. The ability to drop into a debugger if a doctest raises an exception.
Robert's code is at
http://code.google.com/p/sagemath-timer/
and does most of the above (plus more which has been moved to followup
tickets #12720 and #12722)
