Hi,

yes, this does make sense, and many thanks for writing this down in
detail. - I will follow your steps (and develop my own routine).

And computers are getting faster after all (to some extent still): My
53sec for pulling were on an 4 core i5 (with 16G RAM) - this e-mail I am
writing on a 8 core i7 w/ 16G RAM as well - and I might want use it for
guix at some point (and that should accelerate things then).

All the best,
  -Andreas
