Hard to say.  I think this discussion is a little premature given our
historic underutilization of the build farm hardware, which is very
often idle.  Perhaps once the instrumentation of Cuirass has yielded
actionable paths to improving this we can reconsider if priorization is
still necessary or even feasible.
