Seems a bit heavy. The extra overhead of running multiple agents alone seems like it would be significant, let alone the complexities involved with having multiple user profiles being used, all of which would need to have a consistent configuration to ensure the agents all behave the same, not to mention managing security and permissions and whatnot. Given that each of our agents currently runs with between 4 and 6 executors, that would increase our agent count by the same factor.

Also, this would make managing overall load on a given system more complex. Consider jobs that are configured to use 100% of the agents resources to prevent parallel build problems, as an example. These would need to be configured to work across agents somehow. I'm not even sure that is possible....
