I consider that to be mostly irrelevant. There can be a simple
queueing system and a build cluster with distcc.

I consider the challenge to be how to provide a useful interface for
creating spec files.

Also - the web site has to simply start the process, and then notify
the initiating user out of band when the build is finished because
the request will otherwise take much too long.
