Hi @nyue, yeah those efficiency tests can be rather flaky. Running the test a few times usually fixes it.

CI looks happy at least: https://travis-ci.org/github/cross-platform/dspatch/builds/745146073

[MarcusTomlinson]

Oh yes, another thing. Those tests should be run against the release build, not debug.

[nyue]

Thanks for the heads up. I was building release.

[MarcusTomlinson]

I've made these tests a little more lenient now. Hopefully that helps.
