I just ran each long test individually, and annotated them with how
much time they took (on my macbook pro). They are indeed all below
30s, except for a big E8 test which takes 160s. I marked that one as
#not tested, and the file now runs under 150s which is good enough
(especially since I expect further serious improvements when we will
optimize the combinatorial free module code).
I removed the #long time on a couple calculations that were below
0.7s. I also removed the #long time on the declarations (like the
E6=...). They don't cost much, and one never knows; they might catch
something.
Dan or Mike: please review trac_5794-long-time-nt.patch on #5794!
By the way: I posted a feature request on trac to streamline this kind
of doctest timing analysis: #7493
Cheers,
Nicolas
