    These tests all call do_access() in which various loops and operations
    are performed on every 'group' (GID) (or supplementary group) defined to
    the system. Our tester user a member of each supplementary group up to
    NGROUPS_MAX.

    The VSX implementation basically assigns certain timeout values to these
    test cases but these timeouts do not contain any component that is
    sensitive to the number of groups (NGROUPS_MAX) on the system.
    Typically most Unix implementations do not exceed 16 or 32 for the value
    NGROUPS_MAX. Our implementation has an NGROUPS_MAX value of 300. These
    test cases perform a series of operations on each group. The problem is
    that the WAITTIME value computed is insufficient for a test that must
    process 300 groups. We typically "time-out" close to 200 groups.
    NGROUPS_MAX should be one of the components of WAITTIME to allow these
    test cases to complete successfully.

    Review Recommendation No Resolution Given
    Review Response
    We assume that you have already set the SPEEDFACTOR to 10 via the config.sh
    script. In this case, we suggest that you edit the SRC/vsx_params to set
    SPEED to 20 and then recompile the libraries by executing make in the
    TEST_SUITE_ROOT directory. Once this make is complete the test suite
    needs to be recompiled using tcc -b and re-executed using tcc -e.

    It is recommended that the above work around is used and that the
    request for a waiver is refused.
