The count of tests is not important, the size of the data is.

It was a huge monolith schema. As far as the size of the data being created during the tests, quite small, since they would test individual pieces. Very data intensive tests seems like an outlier for most types of tests I've seen.

Yep, I mostly am working integration tests for large ETLs, unit tests dont need this.
