I guess it would be good to mention this motivation in the commit
message - otherwise looking at the history we won't understand why we
made this change.

Please post v2 mentioning resource availability issues with travis-ci
using the container infrastructure which don't seem to impact the VM
infrastructure.  I will ACK.
