That's indeed a lot. I only got 6.9G in my build tree for all targets ... I
guess there are some stale files lying around, so as a temporary mitigation,
just try to delete that folder (it should get recreated the next time you
run the tests).
The new functional tests seem to be eating disk space.
Even the build tree I have that's just arm targets is 7.1GB.
Could you have a look at what's happening here?
I am aware of the problem and got it on my TODO list already... I think we
best should set the "workdir" to a temporary folder that we can remove once
the test has finished, that will automatically delete all binary assets that
the test created during its runtime.
