Not formally, but we already get complaints about tests running too
long, and if you write a test that takes three minutes to run you all
but guarantee that no one is going to run it in practice... :)

You could play with things like decreasing the ping interval (with -i),
maybe running fewer of them, and getting rid of all those 'sleep'
statements to decrease the runtime...
