I've tried again and I observe the following:

- TRUNCATE TABLE non_partitioned_table works instantly
- TRUNCATE TABLE partitioned_table is slow.

This is in both MariaDB and facebook/mysql-5.6. 
I'll collect the details and report a bug.

Guillaume, could it be that you saw TRUNCATE TABLE being slow on a partitioned
table?  (or it was non-partitioned?)
