    The main problem is that the 2 new buildd are Niagara machines
    which are not really stable. It left only 2 buildd which seems to
    be quit old and slow.

    On my V240, the 3.13 kernel seems to be rock solid (I've been
    rebuilding the gcc package 3 times - 8hours build - without any
    issue).
    Maybe what's missing is a couple of stable buildd to match the
    workload.


Interesting. I have a SB 2500 (2xUltraSPARC III) and I faced some instability when using 'git clone' on a kernel I compiled, but stock debian was OK. I wrote it off since I changed the default memory allocator and enabled a few experimental features, but maybe there is something more to this. Perhaps we should compare some kernel configurations and see where the source of instability might be.

My kernel are plain debian kernel, without modification. I had no issue at all with new kernel.
I've been running 3.2 for 1-2 year with no issue.
