I agree with Martin that some tests in the aiodio testing suite should handle default value a bit better. To reduce the amount of memory/time required by manual execution with default values could be a task for the next future.

Hi,
only dio_sparse really needs higher timeout because we use it for a slow
stress test in a runfile. dio_read should get a lower default number of
child processes instead (8 or 16 to keep the default memory requirements
under 512MB).

Thanks!

I also noticed dio_read, but as you pointed out it's already fixed by
f3caabe44c ("Reduce memory footprint of the dio_read test")

Runfile usage is fixed but running the program manually with default
setting would still result in extreme memory use. We should make the
defaults more sensible as well.
