Description
Compare the following:
```m2
i1 : needsPackage "OldChainComplexes";
i2 : S = ZZ/101[x_1..x_9];
i3 : J = ideal vars S;
o3 : Ideal of S
i4 : T = S/J^5;
i5 : elapsedTime res coker presentation T
-- 2.99913s elapsed
1 1287 8580 25740 45045 50050 36036 16380 4290 495
o5 = S <-- S <-- S <-- S <-- S <-- S <-- S <-- S <-- S <-- S <-- 0
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
o5 : ChainComplex
```
versus:
```m2
i1 : needsPackage "Complexes"

This example is based on `check(1, "Depth")`, which was running out of memory in the cmake-macos builds for #4171.

Research direction
Reproduce the comparison using the shown Macaulay2 commands for OldChainComplexes and Complexes, then run the check(1, "Depth") case referenced in #4171. Trace why resolution computation is slower or exhausts memory in the cmake-macos builds; done means the regression is explained and the affected workload no longer has the reported slowdown or memory failure.
