please leave slot administration to Hudson admins. we're trying to
remove slots, not add them, on the Master.

I hope no one minds too much... I just increased the number of slots
in the Hudson master from 2 to 3. What happened is that I've got two
jobs which are both set as 'multi-configuration' jobs. Each job
actually spawns a child job in order to do the work, but both the
parent and the child are in the executor queue at the same time. The
parent does no work, but ties up a slot.
So my two jobs will sometimes get triggered at the same time. Then
both parents sit in the queue and neither can spawn a child to
progress any further. Adding one more slot solved this... until a
third multi-config job happens to hit the queue at exactly the same
time.
Ideally, I'll look at ways to avoid my job having to be tied to one
node.
