Combo tests often generate a very large number of files to be compiled.  To avoid the overhead of the file system, there should be a test library with infrastructure for easily making tests that compile dynamically-generated code, with the option to inspect compiler diagnostics and generated class files.  This should be set up using a memory-based file manager so as to avoid the overhead of filesystem access.
