At this point I'm more likely to explore if I
get similar ratios as ampere[13] do for some
port-package builds that have the large ratios on
ampere[13]. There are examples that are not as
overall time consuming for ampere[13] as what I've
already referenced (but are still non-trivial for
the time taken). As stands, I do not have a good
reproduce-the-issue context, much less one with
build time frames I'd be willing to deal with in
my environment.
