Currently all builds are on the same machine and there is a limit of 2 parallel builds for this machine. > 3.

I will have a look at that. > 4. Is each backend a separate physical (or virtual) machine (i.e. do > they all operate independently)? Are more machines planned? There is currently only one backend machine that is limited to two parallel builds. It is a 6 core Phenom II with 16GB Ram so performance is quite decent but more hardware will be needed over time. I would also like to get get some Tier-2 hardware like powerpc or sparc if there is enough interest. So organizing more hardware is on my todo but it will take some time. > 5.
