Is it acceptable to run the arm buildbots only on a weekly basis ?

For all the architectures (x86_64, armv7 and arm64), the tests are run with the same Python code, built with the same tools and running on the same operating system that runs on emulators using the 
same configuration.

If we do not take into account the ctypes issue, there is only one issue (issue 26939 [1]) among all the Android issues that is specific to arm, and it is not even really an arm issue but an issue 
related to the slowness of the emulator that has been fixed by increasing in a test the switch interval with sys.setswitchinterval().
