I noticed when using run-webkit-tests to run iOS layout tests using WebKit1 an WebKit2 that the rate at which tests are run significantly slows down as run-webkit-tests nears completion. This behavior tends to be more noticeable when running large batches of tests (> 10000). I am using a Mac Pro with 2 x 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon processors, 12 GB RAM, OS X Yosemite (14A378) with a debug build of WebKit at r177430. I invoke run-webkit-tests to run tests using WebKit2 with a command line of the form: Tools/Scripts/run-webkit-tests --ios-sim --runtime com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimRuntime.iOS-[...] --device-type com.apple.CoreSimulator.SimDeviceType.iPhone-5s --no-sample-on-timeout --results-directory layout-test-results-rebase -2 [...] (I omit the argument -2 in the above command to run the specified tests using WebKit1). When invoked with [...] as the empty string (i.e. to run the full suite of layout tests), run-webkit-test will run 24 instances of WebKitTestRunnerApp.app in parallel.

Is it just that some workers finish, and there are only a few of them remaining at the end? Running run-webkit-tests with --debug-rwt-logging should tell.
