Thank you for asking! As I run several VMs on my hosts ATM, I will transfer them all to the hosted machine, and most of them are my private ones (mail server, own build server instance, cloud storage, monitoring etc.). PMBS is just one VM, and although it takes the most storage space compared to my other applications, I would have bought such server anyway. So - my money is well spent, and PMBS is just a goodie :) In terms of build power we will have to see. ATM I run 4 build workers on my servers (2x Dell R810 = quad CPU 8 core Westmere EX with 384GB RAM) - buildwk1 to buildwk4, all of them 12 cores, 32GB RAM, 120GB SSD. I will certainly not go that big with the hosted server to be able to provide this massive build power. There will probably one build worker with the amount of resources I can spare from the hosted machine. The swkjt02 and -3 workers are on loan for the time being, and they can vanish any time, as the hardware is quite old (~ 2008), and may fail any time, or the owners might decide to use them differently or scrap them. Long story short, to increase build power you can chime in. If you have an idle machine, I can provide you with specifics for a VPN connection and setup instructions to provide a build worker. Workers can be available part time, as you can see with the aarch64 and armv7l workers. Even swrj01-3 are connected that way, they are sitting right beside me on my desk at home (they do not produce intense noise or heat :). But first let me migrate all VMs to the new hosting location, and have a look then. Greetings, Stefan -- Stefan Botter zu Hause Bremen
