2) make test - run the entire test suite. Takes just as long every time, but most of it won't have changed.
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.
