Linux: My computer is so fast ...

... that it finishes before it even started.
I just ran Croquet's tests on a MacBook Pro with Ubuntu Linux in the
Parallels PC emulator:
CroquetVMTests new quickLatencyTest
results in
#(2.451390797266446e6 1073741822 0.023 3)
which is a test failure. The first value is supposed to be the
average number of milliseconds for a local network roundtrip, the
second the maximum. Strange values. Looking at the actual test runs,
here are the results sorted by occurrence, values in hex:
a SortedCollection(63481->'16r0' 4374->'16r1' 131->'16r2' 61-
>'16r3FFFFFFE' 45->'16r3FFFFFFD' 44->'16r3' 29->'16r4' 20-
>'16r3FFFFFFC' 10->'16r7' 3->'16r6' 3->'16r5' 2->'16r8' 1-
>'16r3FFFFFFB')
The method to measure the runtime is [...] timeToRun. How could that
possibly answer a negative amount?! Only if the millisecond clock
turns backwards. The new Apple machines indeed are very fast, but
*that* fast?
