Yeah, it makes no sense from an OVB perspective to add these as low 
priority jobs.  Once in a while we've managed to chew through the entire 
experimental queue during the day, but with the containers job added 
it's very unlikely that's going to happen anymore.  Right now we have a 
4.5 hour wait time just for the check queue, then there's two hours of 
experimental jobs queued up behind that.  All of which means if we 
started a low priority periodic job right now it probably wouldn't run 
until about midnight my time, which I think is when the regular periodic 
jobs run now.
