Bear in mind, too, that I'm not just arguing that test failures are causing problems with Windmill, I'm arguing that the entire overhead is weight which brings little benefit compared to the weight. So while I see moving to running this via Hudson as an improvement, it's just more work for Windmill with what I think is little gain. The idea of the experiment is to try to verify this assertion.
