The majority of the time is the elc compilation. So, the first build
takes a long time, second much (much) less.

There is also quite a lot of baggage on top of this. After the zip files
have been build, I have to unzip them, so I check they run cleanly. This
takes around 5 minutes per zip. For Emacs-26, I'm making four zips. Then
the uploads. I normally do it over two days.
