Install Additional Build Agents

Although the TeamCity server in .exe and .tar.gz distributions is installed with a default build agent that runs on the same machine as the server, this setup may result in degraded TeamCity web UI performance, and if your builds are CPU-intensive, it is recommended to install build agents on separate machines or ensure that there is enough CPU/memory/disk throughput on the server machine.

To set up additional build agents, follow the instructions.
