That would be great... The biggest bandwidth is to send an email with the tar.gz build log (typically 300 to 400 KB ) to the tinderbox server, after each build Bandwidth to keep the git repo up-to-date should not be too big, but it is hard to quantify and can vary. To set-up a buildbot, clone contrib/buildbot and read README.tinbuild2. if you have any question on that, please ask me.
