Being a newbie to arquillian I ask myself what the expected performance should be like.

I am using arquillian 1.0.4.Final with a managed JBoss 7.1.4-SNAPSHOT (with org.jboss.as:jboss-as-arquillian-container-managed:7.1.3.Final).

Running one of my tests takes 36 seconds. It's a war archive containing about 3900 classes and a few libs (namely objenesis-1.0.jar, hamcrest-core-1.1.jar, solder-logging-3.1.0.Final.jar, mockito-core-1.9.5.jar, solder-api-3.1.0.Final.jar, solder-impl-3.1.0.Final.jar)

Here's the log - any comments?
