As we discussed in a weekly meeting, one possible reason for the tests to take too long is because the waiters on both tempest side and manila server side are too long.
On manila server side, there are waiters in several places, one of them is "time.sleep(tries ** 2)".
On tempest side, it is "time.sleep(self.build_interval)".
Maybe tweaking those values can improve the time it takes for the tests to complete.
