The whole test run is taking longer ? So it could be slower queries or slower 
test setup / tear down?

If you are creating and truncate the KS for each of the 500 tests is that 
taking longer ? (Schema code has changed a lot 0.7 > 1.0)
Can you log the execution time for tests and find ones that are taking longer ?
 
There are full request metrics available on the StorageProxy JMX object.
