I agree that failing a build for a timing test such as this is 
inherently unreliable...so let's turn it off.

(Tested only in sparse/tests/test_basic.py, not a full build.)

It may be that theano is slower because it's using a 
lowest-common-denominator BLAS while numpy does runtime processor 
detection, as recently discussed at
https://lists.debian.org/debian-science/2017/02/msg00043.html , but now 
is not the time to be fixing that.
