When I start an Emacs session for a new version (which needs to
recompile all the packages I use, because my sessions are restored by
desktop.el), I see about 100 Lisp files compiled into *.eln inside of
1 minute, and then another bunch of 100 inside another minute (with 10
minutes between these two groups).  Does this strike you as a long
time to avoid unplugging?  I hope your battery can hold more than a
few minutes.
