The test runner has an option, -jn, to run tests in n processes instead
of just 1.  On my 6 core pentium, -j5 cuts time to almost exactly 1/5th
of otherwise.  -j10 seems faster but have not times it.  I suspect that
'make test' does not use -j option.


Just to clarify, -j is an option of GNU make to run the Makefile in parallel. Unless the Makefile is buggy, this should result in the same output. You can also set an environment variable to enable this permanently (until you log out) like

export MAKEFLAGS=-j5

Put this into your .bashrc or .profile, and it'll become permanent.
