Hello all,

Good news! cfarm427, cfarm428, cfarm429, cfarm430 are available now. 
They are hosted in Tokyo, Japan, just like cfarm420~426.

cfarm427~429 are aarch64 systems on VMs, each is allocated 16 cores and 
16GB memory. cfarm430 is on a x86_64 VM, has 32 cores and 32GB memory. 
They run these OSes:

cfarm427: FreeBSD 15.0-current
cfarm428: NetBSD 10.0
cfarm429: OpenBSD 7.6
cfarm430: FreeBSD 15.0-current

For /home storage, every VM is allocated a 1TB volume. However, since 
ZFS (block level) zstd compression is enabled, each volume can fit about 
2TB data. The compression ratio on cfarm420~426 is 2.5x on average.

Since I'm the one who is hosting them, I won't be thanking myself for 
hosting and support :D

PS: you are welcome to request the installation of new packages by 
emailing cfarm-admin. I suspect that we might not have many packages 
installed, comparing to other linux-based hosts.
