Overall, I expect the host to be *faster* than the old hosts, but ironically the tests that seems to fail is: __main__.SchrootRunner.test_copy_timeout.
Yes, it's too fast. The test is testing a huge file and expects the copy to fail because it should take longer. Well, with tmpfs the autopktest inside the test passes and hence the outer test fails.

As also amd64 has /tmp on tmpfs, I don't immediately suspect that to be the problem;
I forgot that on amd64, autopkgtest's autopkgtest now runs in qemu which doesn't benefit yet as much from tmpfs as lxc does, so it's not a good comparison.
Is there a way to detect if we're on tmpfs? We should skip this test then. Paul
