Description

Description of the issue (or feature request).

Each build request in this repository currently creates 48 jobs on Travis CI. It is also very actively developed, and each day we see 30 to 40 commits, resulting in upwards of 2000 builds per day.

While we appreciate your using our service, this is a severe strain on our resources, and it impacts other users on our system.

Please consider reducing the number of Mac jobs to an essential minimum. If you would like to maintain this level of usage, please let us know at the email address below, so that we can arrange special queue and payment.

Thank you.

Temporarily disabled builds on MacOS until we are able to determine an effective strategy for reducing build times (and loads).
