Comment 3 for bug 1945688

I don't think this is a case that we have encountered before. For most people they have specific expectations and don't want to overcommit (have 10 machines allocated but not doing anything).

I don't have any problem having a preference for Machines that are clean, empty, and already 'running'. I'm not sure if the existing infrastructure makes it easy to select this. (My guess is we prefer them based on numerical order, and the ones that you provision first are the most likely to have come up first.)
