Currently, EC2 bare metal macOS instances are used to run finch's workflows. Due to the performance available on this hardware, it is not economical to have them only run 1 workflow at a time. If VMs are used, we can also leverage ephemeral GH runners to increase the availability/lower the cost of the infrastructure needed to support finch.

Given runfinch/finch#282, it may not be feasible to use virtualization framework for testing due to the lack of nested virtualization available. Closing the issue.
