Thanks for the feedback. Have a look at
https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/ci/quick_start/README.html please (I’ll add the

The runner we’re using is installed on a machine at my place. I assume that
as salsa usage grows, more shared runners (run by DSA/the salsa team?) will
become available, and we can just switch our workload over to them. For the
time being, using our own runner is a nice way to not step on anyone’s toes
and ensure our resource usage doesn’t hurt anyone else. IIUC, the current
shared runners should only be used for GitLab pages and the like.
