My latest full bulk build took 28h40min on moderately fast E3-1270v2. That should be nowhere near as powerful as monster as. So if the bulk build on a faster system takes an order of magnitude longer, it is a setup problem.

We really need an always-running benchmark machine, starting in about 2007.

Still interesting statistic, but probably not shining example of core system improvements in SMP.
