I run a similar machine. I suspect that both servers would promptly
melt, implode, and then, through sheer energy density, collapse into
black holes. Even in this decadent age, there are a *lot* of Emacs users.
I think we can start with the Emacs-next master branch and get a feeling
for what kind of workload this project would involve.
By the way: Ubuntu (my distribution of choice these days) has its own
crash reporting system, this appport/whoopsie thing. I wonder whether we
can sample their existing Emacs crash reports somehow.
Microsoft also has a way for software vendors to get crash reports from
Windows Error Reporting.
