mock is nearly as fast as rpmbuild if you use use --no-clean Do your edits, then build a srpm
rpm -bs whatever.spec mock -r fedora-xx /path/to/whatever.srpm the first build will be slow. Do more edits rpm -bs whatever.spec mock -r fedora-xx --no-clean /path/to/whatever.srpm the second build is nearly matches rpmbuild speed.
