All,

There is an upper bound for job execution time on free workers (set to 6
hours max[1]), which can be configured beyond 6hrs with a self-hosted
worker. All of our pipeline jobs are using `--max-workers` to parallelize
gradle tasks but `testMaxParallelForks` is left to default which is (1/4th
of the available CPU cores), so primarily due to running only a single test
in each parallel fork geode-core distribution tests are taking more than 6
hours. Other than finding a solution for core distributed tests, most DUnit
tests are passed[2] by splitting them into individual jobs (WAN, CQ,
Lucene, assembly, management).

Will reach out to infra team and trying playing with `--max-workers` to
parallelize more tests than having to run parallel tests with in a fork
would be options.

I am going to wait for few days to get answers from infra team before I can
create a PR to add at least the passing DUnits.
