Uhm... migration is IO bound. Compilation - CPU bound. They should
complement each other nicely.

More than that, migration is local to the system (and most likely
optimized). But sending "hundreds of small gcc tasks" over network already
implies much greater overhead/latencies/etc.

P.S. I personally would try to avoid daisy-chaining because any compilation
trouble would be very hard to diagnose.
