Some (definitely not all) of things that can make the results different:
- users have different ~/.nessusrc
- if the first test crash some service then the second will not see it
- if there is a limit on number of open connections, the first test
could fill the limit up and then the second test will not be able to
connect to service
- first test could trigger some IDS countermeasure then the second test
will be blocked
