recompiling all of plan9 takes about 15 minutes

Well yeah, but plan9 has so little code because it doesn't really do anything. Recompiling any consumer-grade system takes much longer.
Actually recompiling Plan 9 takes about 60 seconds on my current Thinkpad.
A 15x speed up in a few short years, how delightful.
