We should increate the default number of child processes spawned for arm64 Macs, we currently spawn only 6 for a M1 Mac mini compared with 9 for the latest generation Intel one.
My local testing suggests that doubling the count to 12 appears to be stable and yields about an 18 minute speedup in overall layout test runtime.

Maybe there is a better heuristic than simply doubling, but we should consider increasing the count for a short term win before we make further optimizations to overall test runtime.
