 This addresses two problems in regards to an action's dependence on time.  The 1st problem is when an action takes longer than it should because it's sleeping unnecessarily.  The 2nd problem is when an action relies on time which causes it to eventually be broken on master despite the code not changing.  Both problems are expressed below as unit tests.  We demonstrate a time-spoofing mechanism (the re-writing of syscalls) which allows us to detect these problems generically over any action.  The objective is to analyze builds for performance inefficiency and discover future instabilities before they occur.
