I think it's hard to say, as there are time-consuming tuning procedures ran 
by NTL (and if you build Atlas, its tuning
may take really long). Building gcc is a bottleneck too, so if you avoid it 
you get quite a speedup.

It also depends on the kind of harddisk used (SSD or the "classical" drive, 
etc), as a lot of building time
is reading/writing to disk. The type of filesystem you use would also play 
a role.

On an old Apple laptop (late 2010 AirBook with Core2 Duo CPU)
with a similar CPU, only 2-core, not 4-core, building Sage  was always very 
slow, taking a good part of the day.
(Faster with Linux than with OSX, although not by much).
