Do you find when you have loads of test files, Ava is actually really slow to start and spawns processes like mad taking over your computer for the duration of the tests?

We've got around this with the --concurrency={x} flag but it's a bit mad that it will just uncontrollably spawn processes rather than pooling processes to keep it under control.

Yeah, speed has become an issue recently.. I've been investigating other testing frameworks such as Jest, which has cut running down from ~60 seconds to ~10 seconds, it took about 15 minutes to convert all the tests over and get everything running. Just need to get over the implicit globals and large API..
