It took 9.5 minutes on my i7-3770S CPU @ 3.10GHz.  If the fuzz-bot is running
closer to 2GHz it should be on the order of 14-15 minutes.

I'd agree that upping the limit is reasonable: the loops will be caught by the
regular fuzz testing.  The only other alternative is to remove all the large
files from the menagerie.
