That's not a very useful comparison.  Pick another package like GNU
fileutils and configure will still take ~15 seconds, but will have a
much larger compilation time that outstrips configure.

I'm not saying that configure's performance is good at all, but this
benchmark is just damned lies and statistics .. :-)
