This is a valid point, but adding 30seconds to our current 60min run
isn't much of a sacrifice.  We can gain much more than that back if we
sort out inefficiencies in ldb, or someone makes less fsync() calls
(painful on ext4 in particular) for example. 

We already added similar extra times when we started to test the various
functional levels.
