Description
While reviewing at https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/proposed-migration/resolute/update_excuses.html#mariadb why MariaDB wasn't migrating from Ubuntu resolute-proposed to the proposed pocket, I noticed that the autopkgtest in Ubuntu were failing with:
4730s main.large_pages w4 [ fail ] Found warnings/errors in server log file!

This is surely due to the autopkgtest host machine having too little memory or something.
I wonder if the minimum memory requirement for the MariaDB 'main' test suite is documented somewhere? Could tests that have large memory requirements be moved to the `--big` suite/flag, or could they be automatically skipped on hosts that aren't compatible?
