Excuse me, but that is not true in this generality. I do run poudriere on ZFS in a cloud instance with 7G of memory and a CPU of 2.1 MHz. Never had to wait for more then one hour for recompiling *all* of my 240+ ports for STABLE-12. YMMV, yes, but stating that in that totality is nonsense, at least IMHO.
