Gentoo can be a quick or long install, based on what kind of stage you want to start the install on. Stage 1 allows you add/remove compiler options and compile every system package with your custom flags or you can go with a stage 3 install where all the packages have been pre-compiled for you and all you have left is the kernel and minor packages to build.
Gentoo is a good meta-distribution if you want to control what gets installed and have a pure system based on your needs.
