In each case, the bot only ran the tests once.  Sometimes it runs the tests three times, for example when there's a flaky test or when the patch actually introduces a failure.  However, those cases won't be improved by marking these tests as failing.

In general, I agree with you that we should fix the configuration.  There's some trickiness last time I investigated the issue because the kernel for "canonical" version of linux we use for tests causes the EC2 disks to lock up.  It's likely that situation has improved, but I haven't had the time to investiate recently.
