What it does help is my dev cycle.  I am in a loop:

edit file.py; sage -b && sage -t file.py

Building takes 5 seconds.  Running the tests for sloane_functions.py
takes 50 seconds on my computer.  That is a terribly long time to fix a
typo.

What I really need to do is update the doctesting architecture to make
it easier to test only certain things, but that is tricky in general.

I will think about it.
