redirectTestOutputToFile=false appears to add a fixed overhead with both 
versions:

maven-surefire-plugin | redirectTestOutputToFile | time
----------------------|--------------------------|------:
3.5.6                 | true                     |    17s
3.5.6                 | false                    |    37s
3.6.0-M1              | true                     |    57s
3.6.0-M1              | false                    | 1m 17s

So doesn't appear a factor.  I've opened:

-   https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/issues/3373

with the example I'm trying with.
