Replying to myself, I re-enabled the main 'shindig' job and ran it first on
Ubuntu2
and then on Ubuntu3 (the new slave)

On Ubuntu2 it took just over 9 minutes whereas on Ubuntu3 it took just over
3 minutes. Ubuntu3 is a beefier machine to be sure, but also has the
advantage of
being local to the svn machine so checkouts are far quicker too.

I have disabled the build again so you can perform your own tests, as I
mentioned
previously, please give feedback.
