Yep.  RSpec has a --format progress (and a per-spec timeout as well which
would be useful here), but I don't think Test::Unit has that.

FWIW, in my experience, Ruby speed issues on Windows are pretty much always
file I/O problems.  Even when it's working, and anti-virus is disabled,
it's much slower than Mac or Linux, but when it's not working, hoo boy.

You could probably rig up something with set_trace_func, but (a) that
requires some more coding and (b) set_trace_func itself is pretty slow.
