"Would it be possible for regrtest to do some operations to estimate the speed and choose "good values" for the constants automatically?"

It might be possible to make the parameters dynamic, for example using the system loads. But I'm not really interested to invest too much time on optimizing the timing parameters for buildbots. I would like to ensure that tests pass with a short "test sleep" on my PC. For example, it looks weird to check that a sleep of 500 ms takes less 1.5 seconds: why not testing that the sleep takes less than 600 ms?
