For the bots it would probably just be easier for each bot to disable spindump permanently (there's a good chance we already do this on the mac bots).  

I was thinking more of people running the tests on their machines.  Spindump, when it gets going, can dramatically reduce performance particularly when symbolicating custom builds.  I haven' t tested it recently so I should get some numbers on cpu usage on a recent build.

I don't like the idea of a wrapper, it seems like it would add an extra layer of complexity for a small benefit.
