Comment (by iwakeh):

 Well, I always let the tests run. But I understand your concern.

 The added test reproduces the problem and demonstrates that the solution
 works, but I don't
 expect it to reveal any other problems in future. But, other tests for the
 Scheduler might
 need similarly long.

 Thinking about it, it might be easy to change Scheduler a little in order
 to provide a fast
 way for testing by simply exposing a milisecond version of the scheduling
 method.

 So,  accept the test for now and have a new ticket for making this test
 and potentially others related to scheduling faster?
 That way the long test times will go away soon.
