Once I get around to checking-in these changes, the following becomes an
option:
./Build test --tap-harness-args jobs=29 --use-tap-harness
Unfortunately, that only cuts the test time from 22 to 15s for me. I
notice that t/compat.t is using 8s, most of which is spent doing the
same steps in different variations.
My preferred way to speed up the compatibility testing would be to
delete t/compat.t, but perhaps a more conservative developer would like
to break the test_makefile_types(); step into 6 separate files?
Thanks,
Eric
