Issue body

We applied a hack in travis to get a xenial LXC and run the tests in there. Something changed and now the tests are taking an excessive amount of time, and timing out. We no longer need this tests to run in xenial because we are already running them in Jenkins, so we can get rid of the hack. LP: #1555386
