I just skimmed this, but just to this question. I don't think we need to
worry about 2 v.s. 6 tests having an impact on Windows performance, it's
just massive amounts of tests like my in-flight wildmatch test series
that really matter.

But if we are worring about 2 v.s. 6 there's always my in-flight
EXPENSIVE_ON_WINDOWS prereq :)
