Hi Luis,

Thanks for looking into this.  Some of my confusion was due to the fact 
that several of these builds are testing the 1.0 branch, so obviously will 
not reflect nightly updates to the main development trunk.

The tests are actually failing, not just timing out...that is to say, they 
time out because they are failing.  Anyhow, current versions of the tests 
should run in under 3 mins.  Hopefully the 1.0 release did not capture 
broken versions of the tests.  1.0 dashboards on other systems seem OK.

Thanks,

Josh.
