I finally managed to make this comparison.  I did this by taking my Poky/Yocto
built system for a i.MX6 system (ARM Cortex-A9) and replaced the rootfs with
one for the Gumstix Overo (linaro).  The results were nothing like yours, so
it's a bit confusing.

I actually built an entire Linux kernel - not just the one directory you 
mentioned.

Poky/Yocto - 37 minutes
Linaro     - 48 minutes

There is some flex in these numbers as they were on different [brand] SD cards, 
etc,
but I sure did not see the "5 minutes for Linaro vs 24 hours on Yocto" that you 
reported.

Perhaps the only thing I did differently was I added the SDK tools to my Yocto 
system
using these meta-packages instead of the list you used.
  packagegroup-core-sdk packagegroup-core-standalone-sdk-target

You might try that to see if it makes any difference.

n.b. part of what took me so long to get these results is I was trying to run 
this test
on something closer to your Overo board.  I have an older OMAP DM3730 board 
here that I
tried to do these same steps, but it was unstable and I could not get the 
Linaro based
file system to work at all.  Very strange.  In any case, I think the comparison 
I did get
with the i.MX6 is valid.
