koji.
Because they are done as scratch builds, they get a low priority and can
take *much* longer to build than a regular kernel. For instance, this
mornings kernel build was started within minutes of the git commit.
Possibly even before the actual rawhide build was started. At this
point, the rawhide build has been done for a while, and the nodebug
build is still going. Had I waited until the koji build finished to
start the nodebug build, you would just be waiting an extra hour or so
for your nodebug kernel.
An added data point here:
rawhide kernel-3.7.0-0.rc5.git2.1.fc19: 53 minute koji build
nodebug kernel-3.7.0-0.rc5.git2.2.fc19: 4h 8 minute koji build
The nodebug build was started less than 15 minutes after the rawhide
build was started, it just takes a lot longer to complete.
