Map-reducing it using one Master Jenkins and multiple slaves is probably
our best bet.  Since almost all tests run independent of each other, the
mapping part should not be very hard.  We could just distribute the number
of tests equally among the available slaves.  Reducing it would just be
collecting the output from each flashlog.txt file and dumping it
somewhere.

Jenkins has built in support of this kind of stuff.

If someone has bandwidth now, they could probably run with this idea and
test it out.  If not, I will get to it when my workload becomes a bit
lighter.

Thanks,
