SqueakTrunkPerformance issue (was: Re: [Box-Admins] Jenkins executors on master)

[Levente Uzonyi]

It seems like the SqueakTrunkPerformance job has some problems. The 
results are consistent, because they are probably not updated at all. The 
last 29 values are exactly the same for all benchmakrs, for example 
9575ms for BinaryTrees:
