What happened?

PrimeFaces comes with a suite of integrationstest: https://github.com/primefaces/primefaces/tree/master/primefaces-integration-tests

We currently use Selenium 3.141.59. When i run them on my dev-machine (8C/16T, 32 GB RAM) it looks like this:

With primefaces/primefaces#8145 we try to upgrade to Selenium 4.1.0. There it looks like this:

Additional my notebook get´s unresponsive.

We also run this integrationtests on Github actions. They take about twice the time with Selenium 4.1.0. (And we run into some follow-up problems probably because of worse performance due to resource starvation.)

There already has been a (to some degree) similar issue: #9536

How can we reproduce the issue?

See PrimeFaces-Github-links above.
