What are the resource requirements on something like this?  For
example,

 * How many free MB should be always available?
 * Does this distributed patchbot always delete the patches when it's
done?
 * Can one stop the patchbot if one wants to do something else on the
computer without ill effect?
 * What kind of network authorization would be needed?
 * Firewalls?
 * Etc.

Some stuff seems less than 100% doctested as well :)

But it's a great idea, if this is as easy as doing sage --patchbot and
letting it run over a weekend.
