It depends who is your target audience. These were the numbers for me last time we discussed this specific question: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/LWC5L53CD2BLJKSF2XXZ4D57MS2WXEJL/ BTW it is interesting, that although Perl was removed since the last time, the minimal buildroot is bigger than it used to be and it takes longer to install then it used to: Install 171 Packages Total download size: 128 M Installed size: 494 M real 1m17,327s user 0m55,004s sys 0m6,176s V. > I realise it is hard > to measure, however it should only be a second or two per build at > most.
