If generic/068 triggers the bug, than it's about 1 hour. If that passes,
which rarely happens, then have to wait to get into generic/390, which
is over 2 hours.
It sucks that running those tests alone never trigger the issue, but
running all fstests (first btrfs specific ones, followed by the generic
ones) reliably triggers the bug, almost always at generic/068, when that
passes, it's triggered by generic/390. To confirm everything is ok, I
let all tests run (last generic is 612).

Right.
It's in a qemu vm on x86, with '-cpu host' passed to qemu and kvm enabled.
Thanks.
