Aside from compilation time, is there a quick and easy way for nosetests to report the time per test? From just watching the tests scroll down in real time, there are big gains we could achieve because just a few tests take the majority of the (testing) time. I wouldn't mind re-writing 5-10 of the worst ones for efficiency, without sacrificing utility or coverage.

This has been true since back when the entire build took 5-8 minutes.
