I think it's a matter of saying "deef" instead of something else in the
provider.

I think a provider to simulate running a task is probably not the
difficult part. More difficult may be a mechanism to compress time, such
that a 1 hour job will run in a snap, while a two hour job will run in
two snaps.

I'll let you know as I get a better idea formed in my head.
