New issue 70 by sfiera: Parallelize Antares tests
http://code.google.com/p/antares/issues/detail?id=70
The Antares test suite is quite large and takes a long time to run. Part of
that is that it does not parallelize tests at all, so on a multi-core
machine, only half of their processing power is being used. Turning the
test invocations into real waf tasks should allow it to do its standard
parallelization thing, and run tasks concurrently up to the number of cores
on the machine.
Side note: it's quite possible that I/O bandwidth accounts for a
significant amount of the slowness, in which case parallelization isn't
likely to yield great speed improvements.
