I'd like to push back lightly against increasing the time because it
lengthens the total run time before we can merge a branch. Ideally we
could come up with a combination of build and tests that exercises all
the Windows code without exhaustively testing code paths that are tested
elsewhere. For device emulation are there any host specific things we
are testing?
