One concern might be performance. All buildbot slaves are contributed hardware. I don't mind the load on my Mac (it's a dual processor g5), but it may be an issue for other people.

I've "contributed" 2 machines. One is my personal box, the other is the PSFs. The PSF box is very lightly used except by automated stuff, so it's not a problem. My box is a dual opteron and it really isn't a problem for me right now. I suppose if it was building all the time, I might mind, but so far, there's no issues.

Hopefully over time we will get more people contributing other boxes and this might become a bigger issue. But right now I don't think it's a problem.
