Could you add a jumphost in the Dallas site?

Hi!

After the addition of the latest build servers for Tor Browser, I noticed a quite high latency from Europe (e.g., ping to tb-build-03 is 123ms on people.tpo).

However, it's even worse for other team members who are already in Americas, because they have to go to Germany and come back.

So, I think they'd appreciate another jump host closer to the build machine.

We mostly do SSH to those machines, so low latency isn't critical but it's still noticeable, so definitely not a priority. In many cases we login just to start builds. We do interactive sessions especially when updating the toolchains (in Summer, at the beginning of the ESR transition).

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
