Yeah, that seems to work pretty well. See attached.
I'm getting similar test timings in CI with this as Andres got for the
Linux runs that he did when removing PG_TEST_INITDB_EXTRA_OPTS.
For MacOS I see basically no improvement though, I guess that's probably
because the debug_xxx options actually incur significant overhead. Maybe
it's worth trying to move them to one of the faster runs. But that seems
like a separate discussion.
