Hi Chris,
We do something similar, but not through cron (only our masters start
through cron).
We have a builder (actually a couple for different sets of workers) that
cycles through our workers and uses ssh to attempt to start them. If the
worker is already running, we get back the usual warning about a twistd
server already running.
Having a dictionary of workers and their directories also lets us do
things like prepend the worker name to various builders easily. I don't
think we have a case where a particular build would build on multiple
workers -- we treat that as separate.
Because this process also establishes a consistent environment, we also
NEVER start workers manually. We always let the builder do it. If one
needs restarting, we kill it and let the builder start it next time around.

How do you check programmatically to see if a worker is running?
My worker keeps getting sigkilled, and it's unclear why, so I'd like
to create a cron job to check to see if it's running, and if it's
stopped, to restart buildbot. However, buildbot-worker doesn't have a
`status
