Hi Brendan,

Another thing that has been worrying me is the fact that the MIPS
buildslave is awfully slow; it's been a while now that its list of
pending builds contains 60+ commits.  All the other buildslaves manage
to catch up one way or another, and their list of pending builds rarely
has more than 10 commits.

I was wondering if you could assign more slaves to perform the builds.
I know that may not be feasible for you, but that would be the easiest
solution to this problem.

Thanks,
