STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment:

I would like a timeout per function call because some files contain many slow 
tests: the duration of a file depends on the number of tests. Imagine that all 
functions takes 1 second: a file with 200 functions takes 200 seconds, whereas 
a file with 1 test takes just 1 second.

The problem is some files having a lot of slow tests like test_io, 
test_largefile or test_subprocess (especially test_io).

Buildbots use currently a global timeout of 1 hour. I tried timeouts of 5, 15 
and 30 minutes for a file, and I always got false positive. Using a timeout of 
15 minutes per function, I don't expect any false positive anymore.
