hey @SteveGilham

I hope this doesn't come across as unqualified, but I wanted to share my observations and would like to get your feedback.

Today, Renovate gave us a PR for the version upgrade from 8.8.74 to 8.8.165. When running our PR pipeline, I noticed that the test duration has increased significantly.

Normal run duration of the unit-test step was around 4~6 minutes:

After upgrading to the latest version, this step increased to over 13 minutes:

I re-ran the whole pipeline to ensure it wasn't an issue caused by machine load or something similar - the result was nearly the same:

I'm not sure what additional information I can provide, but I would appreciate any feedback and am happy to provide it.

Thanks,
Marcus
