Although it says that it timed out, it may actually have failed.
It uses a selection of 250 Kbyte, it's possible that your machine cannot
handle that.

Is there a way we can detect this system is "small"?  Then we could skip
this part of the test.

If you type the command:
        :e ~s<Tab>

Do you also see it fail?  Then the test is successful :-).
Not sure if we can fix Vim.
