Someone installed an aarch64 Christmas gift: There is now a ampere4 with 150 or so FreeBSD CPUs and 24 builders running in parallel

ampere4 was showing 52.27 for the short term load
average and that that was 33%. So, something like
150+ FreeBSD CPUs (1 per core I assume), if I
understand right.

The Jobs Id's were 01 .. 24 , so 24 poudriere builders.

It was also showing: SwapInfo 100.00% when I looked
at that. So it may currently be RAM+SWAP limited for
its current configuration.

ampere4 was building 150arm64-quarterly. In 21:45:36
it had built 10802 port-packages, including 9 that
had taken over 10 hours to build and 10 more that
had taken over 5 hrs to build (top 15 completed
time takers as of when I looked).

Hmm. It just showed a 105.?? load average with a 66%
figure. (I do not remember the ?? digits.) That is
a mean of well over 3 per builder. (For all I know
ampere4 could be doing other things as well as the
port-package builds.)

Having ampere4 in use ought to help with the aarch64
port package build-times issues, even if ampere1
continues to fail fairly frequently.
