Just curious, how big a server does the linux portion of the test  
require memory-wise?  Would, e.g. an Ubuntu 9.0x with 256MB do the job?

I ask because those types of servers are available for short-run jobs  
for pennines per hour and I would be willing to work on the code to  
fire-up, load them with the test suite, do the run, and shut them  
down.  I happen to have a bunch of code lying around for doing such  
things...
