Please back this claims with concrete numbers.

Because I am sure it is not the case.  For an instance, consider the
package julia@1.6.3 built on Berlin: 1061.9+11122.3=12184.2 seconds [1]
vs 1183.4+10081.1=11264.5 [2] vs 1040.7+9559.4=10600.1 [3], therefore,
the worst case is:

  (12184.2 - 10600.1)/60 = 26.4016666667 min

The variance here is obvious.  And it totally depends on the value
itself; the error is relative.

LFS are using *exactly* what you are proposing and they document the
deviation.  Please follow the 2 links there [4].


I am available to share my overall timings for some packages.
