[Olena] #126: Speed up tests

#126: Speed up tests -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: levill_r | Owner: Olena Team Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Olena 1.0ß Component: Milena | Version: 1.0 Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Some tests take a very long time to execute. Main causes are: * input image(s) are too big [[BR]] => they should be reduced (sometimes, testing on `lena.pgm` is just too costly); * the default, non-optimized compilation settings (`-O0 -ggdb`) produces very inefficient code for certain algorithms [[BR]] => we should locally increase the level of optimization (e.g., `-O1` or `-O2`) for these tests, and '''document''' this in `Makefile.am` (explain why we made changes in `CXXFLAGS` for a given test). We might want to make a list of lengthy tests here before solving this ticket. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.lrde.org/olena/ticket/126> Olena <http://olena.lrde.epita.fr> Olena, a generic and efficient C++ image library.
