Comment (by teor):

 Reducing the number of online rust jobs won't stop Travis network failures
 -  it just reduces the number of network connections we make.

 For example, this job errored at the VM initialisation stage, probably due
 to network issues. Then I restarted it:
 https://travis-ci.org/torproject/tor/jobs/418948444

 We should also look for any other opportunities to reduce network usage.
 (But really, Travis should fix their infrastructure.)
