So, while the mass rebuild itself is less than 2 days, it takes a
while
to stablize things after that. If we branched right after the mass
rebuild we would have to then stablize both rawhide and f22.
One other thing that takes time (as a former mirror admin): pushing the
rebuilt tree out to mirrors tends to clog up the works for a bit,
slowing down developers trying to see the updates (to work on problems,
find newly-added bugs, etc.).
