I was going to ask if RAM was a factor since I have 128MB in my
release building box and don't hit a lot of low memory problems that
others do as a result (and current.freebsd.org is another 128MB box -
maybe we should make our release-a-day server a 486SX with 8MB of
memory and switch it to being a release-a-week server instead.
We'd not have as useful a service by far, but it sure would catch
those load sensitive bugs early. :-)

P.S. Yes, of course I'm just joking. :)
