    Wait longer for test lfs server to start.
    
    Also, back off on polling a bit after the first check to reduce any I/O
    contention that might slow things down even more. Instead of 5 seconds,
    this will wait up to about 60 seconds for files created by the test
    server to appear. This allows very slow systems to be able to pass
    tests.
    
    Finally, add a message if the file doesn't appear to make it clear what
    went wrong.
