93 If you can't wait 12 hours or so you may want to skip ahead to
94 <xref linkend="bdb-installation"/>. The test suite can take a long time
95 and has a few bugs causing a report of <quote>Regression tests
96 failed</quote>. However, running the test suite is a very exhaustive test
97 of your hardware, perhaps pushing your machine harder (especially disk
98 I/O) than it will ever see during production use. Note that you must have
99 <application>Tcl</application> installed to run the test suite.
