once you are done with the download of the initial cloned git repository
(which is 200MB+), all the bisection steps will be local and you'll be
only limited by kernel rebuild speed and by bootup and testing speed,
not by network bandwidth.
( once you have the cloned repository i'd suggest for you to keep it -
that way you can track susequent kernels via "git-pull" and it uses a
very network-efficient delta protocol. )
