I'd need to see a much more detailed analysis of all the tests run, the 
order they run and the execution times to ascertain what impact this 
actually has on overall test execution time.

But assuming 5 minutes is too long for tier1, this seems okay. But the 
tests must still be run in some other tier, and I'm not clear where that 
would be now? I would expect them to move to tier 3 perhaps, depending 
on what the time criteria for tier 3 is.

Thanks,
David
