coverage: add performance tests on some parallel-tests aspects * t/testsuite-recheck-speed.sh: New test. * t/testsuite-summary-speed.sh: Likewise. * t/list-of-tests.mk: Update. The new tests are not meant to PASS/FAIL, but rather to help us to obtain quantitative measurements of the performance improvements offered by soon-to-appear optimization patches. Timing before the optimizations implemented by following patches: + Slow Debian i686 system, 1 core x 1.5 GHz, 768 MB of RAM, GNU make 3.81: - testsuite-recheck-speed.sh: 1 run, ~ 6 minutes - testsuite-summary-speed.sh: 1 run, ~ 4 minutes + Fast Solaris 10 i686 system, 4 cores x 3 GHz, 20 GB of RAM, Solaris CCS make: - testsuite-recheck-speed.sh: 4 runs, ~ 3 minutes - testsuite-summary-speed.sh: 2 runs, ~ 6 minutes + Very fast Fedora ppc64 system, 64 cores x 3.5 GHz, 64 GB of RAM, GNU make 3.82: - testsuite-recheck-speed.sh: 5 runs, ~ 4 minutes - testsuite-summary-speed.sh: 5 runs, ~ 7 minutes Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
