I would not make this more complicated than necessary. We have a 
--timeout command line option and the default timeout value can be set 
by *.ini files. The simulator speed is just a detail similar to running 
a target at 100MHz or 1GHz.

Yes, with -O0 and code coverage enabled the tests run longer than usual.
