I don't notice this very much when I browse the grass pages while the 
buildbot is building gdal. The wiki is a bit slow but that's usual I 
believe. I noticed a cracker bot trying to access buildbot.osgeo.org - 
failed ssh connects every 3 seconds for some time but that was different 
time than you were experiencing problems, so probably it wasn't that. 
Are you sure the problem is xblade14 being slow?

I'm scheduled to move some of the slaves to buildtest, away from 
buildbot. But I need to learn some things first.

Some rescheduling could be done but for example gdal buildbot runs more 
or less continuously.
