For whatever reason, the test job always runs late in a CI run (I am blaming the max-parallel annotation for this). This leads to longer CI runs, because, at the end, for several rounds on 6 instances of the test job are executing. Note that Github starts at most 20 of our tests in parallel, so it is not our responsibility to ensure that limit.

Thanks @hendriktews ! indeed I don't see any drawback to raise the max number of these parallel jobs.
