Good first issueInternalTeststatus: triagedtech debt

Description

We have the wonderful nightly test suite run which upscales hedgehog tests by 50x (which then gets downscaled back in individual tests when 50000 would take way too long). We should do the same for QuickCheck, except we should upscale both the test number and the size parameter.

Research direction
Investigate how hedgehog tests are upscaled in the nightly test suite (likely in test infrastructure files). Apply the same pattern to QuickCheck, adjusting both the test count and the size parameter. Since the issue is assigned, check if there is any existing work or branch from the assignee.
