Hi, I just pushed this to github to see how it would behave. In case
anyone is curious, the run is here,

https://github.com/alvherre/postgres/actions/runs/26591496806

Overall I get the impression that it's much slower than Cirrus. 20
minutes in, only the two "Linux - Meson" build finished, in 14 and 17
minutes respectively. Macos took 10 minutes just for the macports
install! Cirrus completed the same build in 18:32,
https://cirrus-ci.com/build/4817054382948352

If I read the Github docs correctly, I get 2000 run minutes for free
each month. That would mean I can run at most some ... 15 runs per
month? That sounds quite limiting. I hope we allow self-hosted runners
at some point; I have quite a bit of spare CPU capacity at home that I
could run the Linux and CompilerWarnings tasks on, leaving the Github
machines to run only the macOS and Windows ones.
