Steve Rowe commented on LUCENE-6516:
------------------------------------

bq. You have a, ehm, non-standard, slightly above average, machine, Steve ;D

True: Intel 3GHz Core i7-5960X Haswell-E (8-real-cores); 64GB DDR4 RAM (running 
@2400MHz); Intel 750-series NVMe SSD.

bq. Just curious if any mere mortal will be able to run these in parallel!...

[~mikemccand] reported that -Dtests.heapsize=30g was required to run some (I 
think only one?) of the monster tests, so to run them at all one needs 
lots-o-RAM; mere mortality is insufficient to run them serially even.

It shouldn't harm serial monster test runners to split these out, I don't 
think?  IMHO every monster test should be in its own suite, to enable parallel 
execution.

> If each of these tests were in its own suite, then when run with multiple 
> JVMs, they could be run in parallel rather than serially.
> When I do this locally using 4 JVMs, the Lucene core nightly+monster tests 
> complete about 20-25 minutes faster (~95 minutes vs. ~120 minutes).
