Ah, tracking down hardware is always the big challenge, isn't it?
That's why I have things like checkbot running on cutlet.  It's easier
to rig something up locally than to do it through the official channels.

However, I don't want to bog down cutlet with running this.

Yep, this looks like it could be pretty useful.

Running on every commit is probably overkill, and is certainly an
effective way to DoS a machine.  Nightly is probably the absolute most
frequent I would want to run these tests.  If we need more immediate
results, I'd save that for requested runs by developers.

This is on my short list of things to do, once I finish the test matrix
and figure out how to handle errors from doAutoPartition that do not
result in tracebacks.
