Exactly.

The compile farm is great and I am glad we are able to make use of the
machines, but many of our buildbots are very demanding on the machine
and it is good to have a few core dedicated machines to use for
serving things.

Or put another way, I like having access to machines I won't feel
guilty if I hose. :)
