And this has been optimized in Dragora, not to mention that it is also subject to build systems, hardware, parallel jobs for the compiler....


I am not sure that I understood it correctly. As I know, qi waste some
time at build time. When I want to build package and install it for
example with the following command `qi build -i`, qi produces the tlz
package and then installs it (unpack). It is visibly when you build
kernel package....


Well, the package specifically in Dragora includes not only the image,
but also the modules, moreover the build tree (in another package).
We are talking about a huge package (40M compressed), and for what Qi
does it (at installation) is pretty good in my opinion.

Try installing the kernel package on Debian, Slackware, or Fedora.
And compare which one is faster.

Okay, I'm trying the --no-solid option, this could be useful for large packages or for packages with an important size. However, better to wait to the suggestions of Antonio.
