             Bug #: 52359
           Summary: time test is too load-sensitive
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: go
        AssignedTo: i...@airs.com
        ReportedBy: r...@gcc.gnu.org
              Host: i386-pc-solaris2.10
            Target: i386-pc-solaris2.10
             Build: i386-pc-solaris2.10


It seems that the libgo time test is too load-sensitive: I've seen it fail
several times like this:

--- FAIL: time_test.TestTicker (1.43 seconds)
    ???:1: 10 100ms ticks took 1.432394s, expected [800ms,1.2s]
FAIL
FAIL: time
--- FAIL: time_test.TestTicker (1.30 seconds)
    ???:1: 10 100ms ticks took 1.301332s, expected [800ms,1.2s]
FAIL
FAIL: time

This happens more often on a Sun Fire X4450 (4 x 2.93 GHz Xeon X7350), where
make check is run with -j<2 * ncore>.
