Blogging Blitz: Pooling Intro

As part of RelEng's Blogging Blitz, I'm going to write a bit about [build slave] pooling concepts, differentiating between the old Tinderbox model and the Buildbot pool-of-slaves model.

The topics covered will be:

• The tinderbox model on a single branch.
• The tinderbox model on multiple branches.
• The pooling model on multiple branches.
• Split pools.
• Some new approaches.
