Alright. But, at least for me, the specifications that you considered
were opaque. If it's 1Gb of memory and 1 core virtualized then good
luck; I'm not saying that it is not possible to optimize for that, what
I'm thinking and say now is that for the moment, documentation wise, we
should give the current specs of the only working build farm. When the
optimization lowers the bar, the documentation can be changed.
