An example of what this new tier allows might be helpful here. A few of us were talking with Ryan at Whistler about running the full Mochitest suite under Valgrind and/or TSAN. This would be slow and CPU-intensive (both tools incur a 10x+ slowdown) so we couldn't do it on every push. But we could do it, say, once or twice a day. This wouldn't meet the tier 1 requirements but it could be made to meet the tier 2 requirements. So the new, more flexible testing structure has the potential to greatly improve the coverage we get with these valuable tools. Excellent!
