It's not easy to suggest one way or the other. We should certainly be
careful with allocating massive amounts of RAM to qemu processes, as
ptests are run in parallel, and it adds up, and can exhaust the RAM on
the build machine.

Is it possible to adjust the test itself, so that it skips the
memory-intensive max level, but otherwise runs?
