For some reason that I don’t understand, tests for a package that I’m working on [keep failing](https://github.com/JuliaApproximation/ApproxFunOrthogonalPolynomials.jl/actions/runs/4225596651/jobs/7345046934) on Windows with the following error message:

```julia

```

The tests work on Linux and MacOS.

I wonder if someone has come across this before? I suspect that this might be due to excessive resource consumption in the testset, but the error message is too cryptic for me.
