I've been using commitfest.cputube.org for reference since the last CF,
though I'm unsure if it rechecks patches when master changes, so I do
that manually. Anyway, that's probably too much to ask since every push
to master would set off a 100+ builds on Travis.

Maybe just reapply once a day when master changes? And only rebuild if
the patch changes? Not perfect, but it would work in most cases.

I use Travis for the pgBackRest project, and I try to be considerate of
the free resources. I dislike the idea of throwing a ton of builds at
them without considering what would be most useful.
