but minimum quorum = 1.

Is this an implicit recognition that too many tasks are failing?

I think Richard deserves an answer. I also, would like to know why you're sending these twice.

Every job is sent originally with initial replication 1.
However, if it does not get back within some time, replication is set to two and sent to fast host. We have been testing this for just few days now.

WU 1087235 is interesting.

#1 sent 11 Jan 2010 21:08:58 UTC, deadline 16 Jan 2010 21:08:58 UTC

#2 sent 15 Jan 2010 22:36:09 UTC (before #1 timed out). Presumably this is the new test 'Replication = 2'

#3 sent 16 Jan 2010 21:11:34 UTC (clearly a routine replacement for #1, which had just timed out).

In the end, all three came back, although #1 was late - yet still got the 'fast return' bonus set by #2 - which I'm pleased to say was mine.

If you've already sent #2, do you need #3 as well?
