Much improved! I have a happy case that's running in 14 seconds instead of 1m30.

This test is still failing though: https://github.com/ucb-bar/chisel-testers2/pull/378/

The list of passing tests is now nice and clean, except if you add the caching annotation, there's a lot of debug output(very handy, but verbose in production):

targetDir: /home/oyvind/...; oldHash: Some(5acefbfbbd9f436a7f53f44cc977bbbda514eedb1c9d39b4533858437ecc46e0); newHash: 5acefbfbbd9f436a7f53f44cc977bbbda514eedb1c9d39b4533858437ecc46e0; oldHash.contains(newHash): true

Ah...

BoringUtils.bore() yield non-idempotent names. For instance, depending on whether you invoke tests to run in serial or parallel, you get different names for BoringUtils.bore()...
