The ARM virtual machines are not a viable solution for our Fedora-Arm Koji Farm. The additional compilation times from the virtual machines can amount to ten times slower than that of the OpenRD client, which can really come into affect when compiling large packages which is not acceptable. The OpenRD clients were inexpensive and almost three OpenRD clients can be purchased at the cost of one of the existing machines. Another solution would be a SheevaPlug, which is generally cheaper than the OpenRD client. The SheevaPlug hardware is identical to the OpenRD, so similar performance should be expected. The SheevaPlug, however has less ports such as video or sata.
