Certainly a good point --- but as I noted to Andrew, we'd probably be
more interested in one-off tests than repetitive testing anyway. So
possibly this could be handled with a different protocol, and buildfarm
machine owners could be careful to schedule slots for such tests at
times when their machine is otherwise idle.
Anyway it all needs some thought ...
