I have no objection to upping this number. We picked 20 fairly arbitrarily.
I think we picked it to match the number that the build.webkit.org bots
were using at the time. That said, every non-chromium bot is passing in 20
via the commandline as best I can tell, so changing the default won't
change anything there. Is it really true that non-chromium bots are hitting
this frequently?
