| Description | steptest takes a long time: $ time ./xci3gc/cool/steptest real 1m11.818s user 0m11.741s sys 0m21.352s This is too long to wait when checking a change. |
| Analysis | Reduce the number of iterations, or banish from testrun to testci. (Or split into two test cases, one for each test suite?) |
| How found | manual_test |
