Description

I'm seeing a bunch of crashes that are caused by out-of-memory, where the oom killer kills the postgresql Docker container.

It would he helpful if entries in pytest's "short test summary info" would be prefixed with [gwX], so that you could quickly see if it might be only a single node.

Research direction

The issue does not name a file or test; begin by tracing pytest-xdist's short test summary output and its worker/node identifier handling. Done means summary entries visibly include the relevant [gwX] prefix, with the short test summary output verified for distributed runs.
