Indeed, there are various other things like leim, info, and whatnot.
Still 7½min seems like a long time for it.

Could it be that when you compiled the files, you used an `emacs' that
was dumped from .elc files, whereas when you bootstrap, you compile the
files with an `emacs' that was dumped from .el files?
