Yes, that is a good idea.

Well I could use my system as an example.  Under vmware running from the LiveCD:

model name  : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3             3.4G  1.3G  2.0G  41% /
/dev/sda1              99M   13M   81M  14% /boot
shm                   379M     0  379M   0% /dev/shm

     Memory info:

              total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
Mem:        775184     191924     583260          0      56528      11580
-/+ buffers/cache:     123816     651368
Swap:       498004          0     498004

The SBU unit value is equal to 339 seconds.
41.2  SBU total

41.2    SBUs times
339     seconds per SBU
13966.8 seconds =
232.78  minutes =
3.88    hours

It is about half that time when native and not accessing source from the CDROM.
