Fantastic.

$ time emacs -Q --batch \
    -l ~/.emacs.d/src/org/testing/org-test.el \
    --eval "(setq org-confirm-babel-evaluate nil)" \
    -f org-test-run-batch-tests 2>/dev/null 1>/dev/null \

So at 8 seconds (on my machine) it shouldn't put too much load on the
server to run after every commit, we would just want to be sure that
multiple instances of the test suite are not run at once.  A check to
only run the suite if it is not currently running shouldn't be difficult
to run.

I can work with Jason offline to figure out how to set this up.
