It was around that ballpark before, but this patch probably made
things worse as it adds four additional datadirs (around 40 MB each
here) and we are close to 1 GB now.
I haven't looked at the other testsuites, but if it is ok to cleanup the
basebackups after each set of tests suceeded, that would alleviate the
problem.
Otherwise, I had a quick look and there is no obvious outlier; the
pgdata is 220 MB after the testrun (195 MB of which is WAL, maybe that
could be cut down somehow?) and the base backups are 22-40 MB each, and
there is around 20 of them, so that adds up to more than 750 MB.
