   > Or not use -j2?
   
   Probably. I'll leave -DUSE_BWRAP=ON and remove the -j2.
   
   > Also, did you try less than 4?
   
   Yes, there is about 1 min improvement in total time between 3 and 4. I did 
not try 2.
   
   There is the Python tox test, that is the most lengthy one. It is 
essentially running the other tests on py27 and then 36. I was thinking of 
giving it a shard of its own, but it seemed to me overly elaborate.

> GitHub Actions is a task runner associated with a GitHub project. It is 
> conceptually similar to Travis, except that it has some extra features, and 
> the waits for computational resources are much shorter (currently).
> Sharding is a technique to speed up the execution of tests. Instead of 
> running the tests on one machine one after another, copy the build directory 
> over to multiple machines, say two, and have the first execute the 
> odd-numbered and the second one the even-numbered tests. With luck (if 
> copying the build directory is relatively fast, and the tests all take 
> approximately the same time), this will cut the execution time in half.
> Bubblewrap (https://github.com/containers/bubblewrap) is a sandboxing tool 
> available on Ubuntu and other systems. It is similar to systemd-nspawn except 
> it does not require sudo or user namespace support in the kernel. It is 
> similar to docker, except it does not use images, instead it selectively 
> mounts directories from the host. Bubblewrap can create an isolated network 
> namespace, which allows running multiple tests at the same time, each in its 
> own bubblewrap sandbox, and they don't clash on ports. With bubblewrap, 
> running {{ctest -j4}} is safe.
