Wouldn't that delay the test for too long?

The default timeout for checkpoints is probably too big.

This problem is quite tricky to get right I guess. Maybe we can watch
/proc/[pid]/statm for increase data + stack memory.

It does not seem to be there, but these shell functions are just
wrappers that do check the tst_checkpoint return value, which would be
fairly easy to add.
