The problem is that multiple builds are being dispatched to the same
machines, so it takes N times as long as a single build.  I need to
build in some kind of repulsion against scheduling more than one such
obese port per machine.  If I were to just increase the timeout then
it would end up idling the whole build cluster for 2 or 3 days while
those concurrent openoffice packages all build on a small number of
machines.
