I'm not sure I see the point: I would guess that the rate at which we're
expanding the regression tests is slower than the rate of performance
increase of the average machine someone is running Postgres on (so in a
sense the regression tests are speeding up over time). If at some point
we add some regression tests that take a considerably longer amount of
time to run, this sounds good -- I just don't think we've reached that
point yet.
