TBH raising the amount of memory only for those tests is the solution
IMHO, since they are very corner cases, and thus it makes sense for
them to require extra work.  In any case, the current default of memory
seems fine for the majority of the use cases, so I'd delay the default
change only if strictly needed to work in "usual workloads".
