I think splitting it up is a good idea...

This test takes about 20 seconds to run on my machine... is there any 
way to speed it up a bit?

The short answer is yes.

The bulk of the delay is from failing tests (there are 14 of them)
taking the entire timeout period of 500ms before failing. With all 4
patches applied, none of the tests fail and runtime is significantly
faster.

I'll send a more aggressive patch (200ms timeout, 20ms polling for
results instead of 100ms). The 3 patches that have fixes still apply
cleanly on top of this new patch.
