It would be nice to have a platform option that will choose the platform that will give the quickest results.

I often find myself only needing a single set of results, from any platform and just want to choose the one that will report back the quickest.

We should be able to automatically check the load on the slaves, and the average build/test time for each platform and determine which platform to select.
Generally linux32 will be that platform.
We have some ideas on how to restructure our underlying scheduling, but that will take time. Until then, choosing linux should generally be fastest.
