Details

Currently we retry a failed parse-log task 10 times, regardless of the reason it failed. Now in the "ftp.mozilla.org is down/under load/..." case, retrying 10 times probably makes sense. However for exceptions like bug 1091759 and bug 1091759 retrying 10 times is pointless, since the log content isn't going to change, so the task will always fail (presuming the log download wasn't truncated... though I'm hopeful we would have got an exception during download in those cases). Instead we probably should not retry at all (or at least should retry say only once or twice, not 10 times) so we don't unnecessarily generate extra work for the processors.
