+Many improvements have been made over the years. There is still quite a bit of
+scope for more though, e.g.:
+
+- easier access to log files
+- 'hunting' for problems, perhaps by building a few boards for each arch, or
+ checking commits for changed files and building only boards which use those
+ files
+- using the same git repo for all threads instead of cloning it. Currently
+ it uses about 500MB per thread, so on a 64-thread machine this is 32GB for
+ the build.
