Under one hour? Than these are not "from scratch" builds, right (or are
missing binfilter or other stuff)? (or some multi-processor system)

Tinderbox also keeps track of average (median) build-times (Build-times
however include creating the shadowtree and updating the tree to a cws)

The tinderbox-Mac's build-time is about 130-150 minutes

The most fundamental difference is that buildbots are told by a
buildmaster-server what to build and that for this reason the buildbots
need a steady internet-connection to the buildmaster.
The presentation of the results is fundamentally different from the
tinderbox one as well. (less useful for a cws-based model, more oriented
to a one-tree-only system)
