There's no reason to wait for 10 minutes: one can reduce the number of
iterations greatly, so that it can run in a matter of seconds. Since
the test is run by all the builders multiple times per day, should the
race condition resurface, it will trigger a buildbot failure some day.
No need for it to trigger a failure every time.
