On my anita test-bed, I have the time-out set to 120 minutes, and my
tests have been timing out beginning with sources from 2011-11-20
00:20:04. The most recent successful pass was with sources from
2011-11-19 18:50:05.
Between those two time-stamps there were 160 files updated, including
the rng stuff.
One tricky thing about /dev/random is that /dev/random blocks if there
is no entropy, so some tests could well be blocking even though there is
nothing wrong with the new code.
It would be nice to have a way for atf to consider each test that times
out failed but still finish. Or maybe the problem is that so many time
out that a global timeout is hit.
