Thanks to those all responsible for the enhancements to the package
builders over the past few months. At least three new builders have been
added for Intel (amd64 and i386) platforms. The new beefy22 system did a
full build of over 34K 14.0 amd64 packages in 44.25 hours! This is less
than a quarter of the time on the previous build system, beefy12. Awesome!

One thing that is needed is inclusion of the new systems in
pkg-status.freebsd.org. It still lists the most recent build of 14.0
default ports as having started back on May 14 on the old build system,
beefy12. pkg-status shows no builds on any of the new systems for 14.0
quarterly and default or i386 default. I just hope to see these added soon,
though I understand that the folks who are doing this work have other
things that limit the time available. I just don't want to see this fall
between the cracks.

Again, thanks so much for hte work on the new beefy systems.
