While fp-stress is waiting for children to start it doesn't send any signals to them so there is no need for it to have as short an epoll() timeout as it does when the children are all running. We do still want to have some timeout so that we can log diagnostics about missing children but this can be relatively large. On emulated platforms the overhead of running the supervisor process is quite high, especially during the process of execing the test binaries.
Implement a longer epoll() timeout during the setup phase, using a 5s timeout while waiting for children and switching to the signal raise interval when all the children are started and we start sending signals.
