can you post a sample of job that can run on centos/fedora and how much time it might take?
(maybe we can add a single job of compilation per commit and see how it goes).
for running per patch, we'll have to wait for more hardware to support it.

as we talked on another thread, that should be OK, though we would need power pc hardware / vms.
