We're reaching a point where slave capacity is slowing development down.
I'd like to get an idea of how much more capacity we need and strategies we
could adopt around this.
If we went with a dedicated Rackspace server, how big of a machine would
we need and what would be the per month cost?
Could we, if we have the funds, adopt an elastic strategy to handle peak
development times? For example, using the Jenkins EC2 [1] plugin?
If we beef up efforts to divert systests from Rackspace to ci.centos.org
would that free up funds to add more Rackspace slaves?
I would be willing to donate a second slave if necessary.

I'd like to state that I would be very happy if we had at least one more
Debian/x86 slave and best a real Debian/aarch64 server (or multiple
smaller ones, like some ODroid C2s) to resume aarch64 builds and maybe
also do the armhf builds on it (should be possible like i386 on x64_64
with multiarch) to get load off the poor RPi2(AFAIK) that's doing all
that now.

Similar specs to the current one would be great, but more disk space if
possible - the usage is increasing. About - Foreman
Jenkins#Slave-requirements
lists current specs.
A regular EL7 installation with my SSH key
(https://m0dlx.com/ssh_redhat.pub) installed for root would be enough
for me to set it up.
If additional storage is available, yes, as the requirements (link
above) are for a minimum of 60GB space, not the 4GB it appears that the
m3.medium spec has.

I mis read that. Are any of the slaves ec2 now? If so, do you know the size?

Unfortunately not, I'm not able to log in.

Yes, I usually run through the list. I've signed the certificate, so if
you can fix the login or perhaps just enable the Puppet service then I
should gain access (in time).

Thanks for the contribution Timo, the slave is now online and running
tests. If you'd like to add yourself to Foreman, please feel free.
