It depends a lot on how much kernel you have configured; I can believe a
full distro-like config with everything built with modules would take a
lot longer.  Are you using make's -j option to use multiple cores?  I
tend to use "make -j4" to get good processor use on a dual-core system
(rough rule of thumb, -jX where X = 2*ncpu).
