IMHO it's better to have some code do generate various type of workspaces and 
loads - same as in the mentioned presentation, you should check performance 
characteristics for various job types, log sizes, number of plugin used etc. 
Using one big workspace can be harder to understand as it can combine multiple 
issues together and you can end up with tuned Jenkins which works fine with 
this use case, but performs not that well with other use cases.

I did very simple job generator of freestyle jobs [1] for PerfCake [2] to 
measure responsiveness of job upload in the past. If you are interested, I can 
updated it to generate various jobs or it can be done in any other tool you 
prefer (or standalone application if you like).

Cheers
Vojta
