Well, it helps to test-build at least on our Tier 1 arch (amd64) and
on all production releases (13.2, 14.0), and CURRENT would be
helpful as well. 

This post
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2021-April/002030.html
lists FreeBSD/arm64 (also known as AArch64) as Tier 1 as well.

The official list of plattforms is here:

The cluster builds on many OS versions, so it's probably
37seconds times approx. 20 variants. So yes, it taxes
the cluster.

Thanks! That sounds reasonable!
