encoding/gob: test suite now apparently requires >8GB of RAM #28321

NeedsFix
The path to resolution is known, but the work has not been done.
Testing
An issue that has been verified to require only test changes, not just a test failure.
Milestone
Since CL 143678 (encoding/gob: increase "tooBig" from 1GB to 8GB on 64-bit machines), I'm no longer able to run the encoding/gob test suite on my machine (with 8GB of RAM). Running the tests kills my OS.
The longtest builder is also failing, presumably for the same reason:

The tests should probably be tuned so that they don't require >8GB of RAM to be run.
