    Description

      Most likely since SuREFIRE-1845, every test execution can retain 64kB of RAM (as cache). Which caching is welcome, this cannot scale with some big test suites of several thousands of tests and cause OutOfMemoryError.

      This is the case when running Eclipse JDT dom test suite, since tycho-surefire-plugin started to adopt surefire 3.0.0.M6, as described in https://github.com/eclipse/tycho/issues/879#issuecomment-1096454637
