I've wondered about the "two week problem" in the context of large open source projects. It would be great if a developer could spin up, say, a temporary VPS for Chromium development, the toolchain all set up and source ready to modify. I can't be the only one with a pet bug that must be trivial to fix, but the overhead of setting up a whole new toolchain to do so is just not worth it.

I was able to get Chromium compiling on my laptop (2010 MacBook Air) in a few hours using one of the tutorials on their Wiki. Most of my time was spent waiting for things to download and compile. Why would you need a VPS setup? If you want to do it in the cloud, isn't AWS enough?
