startup time. Test2 takes twice as long to load, but runs twice as fast
once loaded. The number of test files vs the length of the test files
usually explains why some suites are faster or slower.
I am not familiar with imager, does it have a large number of test files?

Testing perl took ~7% longer on average for non-parallel testing and 3.5%
longer for 6-job parallel testing, which isn't too bad.
Testing Imager was a bit more worrying, non-parallel testing took ~16%
longer and parallel testing took ~11% longer.
But I can only consider that the cost of the increased flexibility that
the new Test system will provide.
In any case we're unfrozen, the extra costs aren't prohibitive, so this
has been applied as b4514920cd5cabccad6add35edf1bef258070a11.
The patch updated win32/makefile.mk and win32/Makefile, but missed
updating win32/GNUmakefile, which I've done in
ec35cd4c022dea519712ce60efb24e281b048471.
