Compiling Chromium took absolutely forever 5+ years ago. I think a whole system took like 20% of the time that Chromium would take to compile. I can't even imagine with rust extensions added on top now. Gentoo was so awesome though but I had to switch to debian because I would just play with my configuration all the time and break things. One day I hope to return to using it though or setup another machine to use it.
I was ok with Chromium alone taking ~6h. I moved away when I started experimenting with Rust.
So basically they'd be new CVE's appearing by the time someone built the previous release at this pace? :P
