Description

In #1744 we disabled all fuzzers on MacOS for performance reasons (other CI still runs there). This will probably lead to bugs down the road and we should figure out a way to bring them back, at least parts of it.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the changes in PR #1744 that disabled MacOS fuzzers, understand the performance bottleneck, and explore partial re enablement (e.g., only for specific fuzzer targets or with reduced parallelism).
