It's a shame these issues don't turn up in the main builds. It seems perverse, but I wonder if it's worth running the Hudson builds in two modes - a 'people with new shiny laptops' mode and a 'people with old laptops' mode. We could do this by applying load to the system while the build was running, or perhaps we might be able to find an open source concurrency testing tool. The results might drive us crazy with intermittent failures for a while, but perhaps in the long run it would get us to a stage where an arbitrary developer could do a checkout from subversion and get a clean maven build first time - which has to be our long term goal, I imagine?
