The only thing that it might be able to do is go "oh... I've
finished building all my stuff and I'm waiting on my partners, I
might as well see if I can beat them to the punch" and start
compiling something another box had been told to build.
I've thought about that quite often too, but unless your local
machine is a lot faster you won't win a lot. The remote already has
all the precompilation done already anyway and has been working on it
already. And that time is probably more than what the network adds
when you get the results, so there isn't much to gain...
But if your machine can't run two compiles in a row faster than running
one compile and shipping the other one out, then you don't want it to
be forced to run two compiles in a row – that negates your assertion
that it's faster to run both compiles on your local machine.
