I guess I don't see an advantage to this.  The branches which only get
pullups once in a while get all the cycles, while the branch where the
real work happens gets to be starved?

The whole reason this came up is because I noticed it was taking a long
time for the builtbot to get to changes I submit, even when things are
relatively quiet, and I wanted to throw more cycles into the pool to
make that get better.
