Things to consider:

this shouldn't be a problem to coordinate, there's spare capacity in the
appservers ATM
* I started writing a client-side bot to trigger new
transcodes on old
files. Prefer I should finish that, or prep a server side script that
someone in ops will have to babysit?
Whichever is easiest I'd say, if people with access to it can stop/resume
it as needed.
Also since some time we're tracking bytes/objects for groups of swift
containers, e.g. "transcoded" in eqiad
