OK I got it now. I've scheduled "./run_build.pl HEAD" on this animal to run
multiple times in a day. Unfortunately, I can't run it ~100 times because
it's a legacy (slow) server and also we run another animal (anole - with a
different compiler) on the same server. Depending on the time every run on
HEAD takes, I'll increase the frequency. Hope this helps.
