Yeah, I think thats the biggest ? in my mind... since we don't know how
fast the hardware will be or how many nodes we will be dealing with
it's hard to say if it will keep up or be managable, how we boot or
load them, etc. 

I think we've made some good steps recently about this with skvidal's
work to automate builder installs. We are going to need something like
that outside of puppet, but assured that it's installed and configured
correctly to manage the increased nodes.

Lets see. 

So, we are getting some koji backup netapp space before too long
hopefully. (Although we might want to use some of this new space for
our private cloud instance too) and hopefully that will help us with
disk issues, but... 

Do we know how big disk wise a arm tree is? Ie, currently how big is
f17 and rawhide for arm on disk?

All of it will need to be in a unified /mnt/koji right? 

Does mash need to be modified any to mash arm stuff correctly? 
(I assume that work is already done). 

How about bodhi? 

I don't think there's anything insurmountable in this, but we will have
to figure out how to make things scale a good deal more than they have
in the past.
