The koji builders are usually faster than your system anyway
Maybe, if building only a specific arch (e.g. koji build
--arch-override=x86_64). The arm builders tend to be quite slow in the
first place, and I don't think it helps that for some reason they end
up doing most if not all noarch builds entirely as well as a lot of
buildSRPMFromSCM and tagBuild tasks for arch specific builds. I
suppose the reason has something to do with alphabetic ordering of
arches or builder names, at least that's IIRC what the explanation was
when ppc builders were in the mix, the slowest ones in the first
place, and they ended up doing the "extra" tasks that arm ones do
now...
