Yep. It remembers me my old idea to make "sleep configurable" in tests: issue #20910.

Most of the time, 1 second is enough. But on such very slow setup, it's annoying to get random failures because of race conditions. It would be better to use longer timeout (ex: 5 seconds), without making tests longer on other buildbots.
