 This mode is harder to setup but scales way better. This is the build
 mode that is used on the GNU Guix build farm at
-@url{https://ci.guix.gnu.org}.
+@url{https://ci.guix.gnu.org}.  The build jobs are not submitted to
+the local Guix daemon.  Instead, a remote server dispatches build
+requests to the connect remote workers, according to the build

+The remote server and the connected workers communicate using ZMQ over
+TCP.  The workers are able to discover the remote server using Avahi.

+the remote server and on each connected remote worker.
