[bug#33284] [PATCH] python: Honor '--cores=...' in tests.

[Mathieu Othacehe]

Hi Eric,

Your patch seems go to me, even if I think the root cause of your problem is fixed by:

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=33186#26

I think that both could be applied to core-updates.

Thanks,

Mathieu

Hello Guix,

I noticed building 'python-minimal' that its tests seemed to have poor
memory performance, i.e. using *a lot* of RAM.  I thought maybe
dropping --cores=... would help, but it did not; the tests use all
available cores by default.  The attached patch fixes this issue,
though, the package still uses all cores while building some extension
libraries.

I suppose this patch would go to core-updates?

Cheers,
