Comment (by rhaas):
I disagree. I am fine with swapping out Exact with EinsteinExact. However this is the only test that test checkpointing. Given that we actually did have failures during checkpointing/recovery in the past (the issues with max_time_levels come to mind) we should not remove all tests that test this functionality. Similarly it should be a test that is somewhat close to a real situation (ie exercise actual production code) rather than a simplified wavetoy code.
Certainly one could try and make the checkpoint file size smaller, though I am not concerned about the 20MiB checkpoint size.
