I think the "prepared transactions" test is the one that takes the
longest.  Which is a shame when prepared xacts are not enabled, because
all it does is throw millions of "prepared transactions are not enabled"
errors.  There is one other test that takes very long because it commits
a large amount of transactions.  I found it to be much faster if run
with fsync disabled.

Maybe it'd be a good idea to disable fsync on buildfarm runs, if we
don't already do so?
