My experiments are pointing to 'self.cancel()' sometimes taking a lot
of time as part of the exec().
I don't know but I feel the new test code itself should be OK. I can
send a v3 and you can run it once too?

Could you reply to this thread with what the version of the patch where
you see defer() takes a long time? We use defer all over the place..

Oh it is still in my sandbox. It's after I incorporate the comments I
received on the v2.
You should see it in v3. Let me ask Michael to send it.

I'm asking for the version that doesn't work / causes trouble.

Ok, I now get what you are asking for. I will send the reply here with
the patch soon. thanks.

It's not in the list yet. v2, which is the latest version, does not
use exec/defer to bring the interface back up.

Presumably that's not the version you want Michael to submit?

My submission is that the test code that will come in v3 is going to
be correct, except that sometimes I see a delay in getting the
interface back up, specifically when I use exec() or defer() for if
up. And I am being certain that the delay is not caused because of any
mistake I have made in the new tests..
