Description
The test suite takes several minutes to run now. The recent work to add periodic workflows has exacerbated the issue. We should look at speeding up the functional tests.

Research direction
Start by profiling the functional tests and reviewing the recent periodic workflow changes to identify what increased runtime. The issue names no files or tests, so first locate the functional test entry points and compare their execution time. Done means the test suite runs faster, but no target runtime is specified.
