Asketh and ye shall be given: without running the tests in parallel, our Jenkins would take *even longer* than the three hours per test suite run (which is really painful, still, by the way). And as you know, running the tests with "-v -x" is awfully useless if you run the test suite in parallel.

Come to think of it, the proposed "verbose test" will not help this use case one bit, neither would test_eq.

Ciao,
