Hi
When you boot a Haiku disk image for the first time, some background
tasks are executed to finish the "build". This is known to degrade
performance and it is specially annoying when this image is booted from
a live CD.
Booting the "anyboot" virtual disk image in a virtual machine before to
publish the release, would let the post-build-script be executed "once
for all" *, and then improve this issue (and the user experience).
Just my 2cents...

This idea has come up before, I don't know why it was never implemented, probably because it is tricky to make the build server do this. However it's important that the SSH key generation is not part of the pre-processing.
