Hi Jeremy, I believe what you're describing is the default Buildbot behavior for quite a long time. What you're seeing is probably slave buffering its commands' output before sending them to master. I think buffer size could be tweaked on per-slave basic by changing their buildslave.tac files. Try looking there.
Sorry I cannot give more precise instructions as I'm writing this from my phone.
