Thanks for sharing your tiredness!  ;-)

This message comes from a pre-0.8.2 Guix though.  Now, I’m not claiming
it’s faster, but at least there’s a progress report that gets displayed.

Our poor hydra.gnu.org front-end has been overloaded for way too long.
We’ve been looking at options to fix that, but that has not materialized
yet.  If anyone reading this can help with hardware, please let us know!
