Hi,
I converted "Windows VM" (that was easy) and reinstalled a brand-new
"macOS 15 Sequoia VM" in Policeman Jenkins without using VirtualBOX
anymore. All is running now as libvirt-based KVM instances. The builds
are now
faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast!!!!!1!!1111!!!!!!!
:-)
The Windows and macOS VMs now build Lucene and especially Solr in
similar times. I also extended disk space to 128 GiB per VM.
I also have not seen any hangs of macOS, so the native support by KVM
with some CPUID adaptions and good wrk by qemu is working well. Thanks
to https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM for the scripts to download and
setup the libvirt XML file. Finally the VMs are using "unsafe" disk-io
mode for the disk images, so fsync and direct-io don't write through.
I will install newer JDKs for macOS tomorrow to get the Lucene Main
builds working again (the old macOS version did not support JDK>21).

The problem with Macos is the emulation.
Kudos to you for even making it work. I never managed to get it working
properly. There was always something that didn't work quite right or just
broke after each Apple update. I'm sure
they make it intentionally difficult to run a hackintosh.
We do have true (I hope) mac runners on github so we do have some coverage
there.
