Yes, thinking on it more I realised that it wouldn't really be
possible.

I considered that as one possibility. The others were:
* Run 10 on each. Then choose the first one that finishes
* Choose one architecture and send the 10 jobs there.
* Wrap 10 jobs into a single looping job and submit it to either
  one or the other.

The exact details above were artificial, but I was speaking to 
potential industrial users yesterday who raised the issue and I was
unable to
give a definitive answer, saying that I thought the best they could do
was
to choose one and go for that.
