Hi, thanks to everybody for working on this.

Windows (runs-on: windows-2022) seems kind of slow isn't it ?

Maybe that's not related to the patch itself, but any idea why the windows
tests are so slow? Or will we able to somehow accelerate those?

Windows - VS - Meson & ninja / succeeded [..] minutes ago in 31m 28s

Processor(s):              1 Processor(s) Installed.

while last CirrusCI run for me for Windows took 19min 21s (4 CPUs / 4 GBs,
but sysinfo reported there "Total Physical Memory: 16,380 MB").

If that's IO traffic as Andres described, maybe we could enable feature
called "Turn off Windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device"
in device manager -> disk -> policies, but dunno how much that would
help really as we seem to be already using fsync=off, maybe it helps
when saving other files too (???)
