There is a 3rd option.  The perl core maintains a separate implementation of
Test::More in t/test.pl.  You can drop that into your project and use it for
your enormous tests.  It does not record test results, that I know, and should
not consume memory.

I use it to test Test::More and am considering spinning it out into its own
project.
