Since the addition of many new tests in cmd/go during the last
few weeks, the cmd/go tests are timing out on the plan9/386
builder running on GCE.

Test "go_test:cmd/go" ran over 20m0s limit (20m0.001784079s)

This is related to CL 158537.

Sorry, but this is not Go 1.12 material.

The Plan 9 port exists on a best effort basis.

Are they that slow even in -short mode?

Is there something about plan9 that makes operations dramatically slower than everywhere else? (go test -short cmd/go currently takes ~37s on my 6-core workstation.)

Or is there something deadlocking in the test?

File I/O are slow on Plan 9. There was a deadlock in ramfs related to the use of the lockfile package, but I fixed in November (issue #29033). Now, the cmd/go tests complete, but it takes more than 20m (the coordinator timeout) to complete on GCE.

I plan to enable SMP on the Plan 9 image, so the cmd/go tests could complete significantly faster.
