The execution of tasks is more jagged under batch.

  1. By having a buffer of tasks, we might be able to smooth this out by having fewer temporary declines in tasks.
  2. The fuzz task scheduling takes very long (>20minutes) because of how long batch task querying takes. This can leave gaps that we are slow to react to.

We'll only get 3X the number of instances we intend to at most
since we check before determie how many to schedule.
This seems reasonable, and probably benign compared to reduced
fuzzing capacity.
