Gilles, short tests have advantages but long running tests as well. By running the test program for a long time you can sometimes identify for example memory leaks, fragmentation or race conditions. For example all standard psos test (in the testsuite directory) run without issue on my PC while the test I have created reveals an issue. So I think both types of tests can be useful.
