Hi, unfortunately I had to spend much more time than I wanted on getting ubuntu-touch ready for GCC 5. One of the things noted at least for some packages is that these are built sequentially, and don't use parallel makes.
An example patch to enable parallel builds can be found in LP: #1480661. Why is this important? All the ubuntu-touch packages are built using the ci-train, which have higher priority on the buildds than all other uploads to the archive. When you guys are active during work hours, almost no other packages are built at least on arm64, ppc64el and powerpc, delaying the builds for the archive. Getting the archive ready for GCC 5 will require us to rebuild around 4000 source packages during the next weeks, so we will compete about buildd resources and will raise the priority for some of these builds manually. It also would speed up our regular test rebuilds of the archive, and would enable us again to do complete test rebuilds (including universe and half of the ubuntu-touch stack) on the architectures mentioned above. If you like your build log sequential and maybe colorized, you still can do this for local builds.
