3 hours is longer than it usually takes on my Lenovo X200 laptop with 2
cores, an SSD, and 8 GB of RAM.  Usually, for me, it seems to take about
15 minutes.

I once tried to speed up 'guix pull' by offloading to another machine
with comparable specs.  Although I did manage to set up offloading
successfully, the result was that 'guix pull' with offloading was many
times slower than 'guix pull' without offloading.  In fact, it was so
slow, I gave up before it completed.  Instead, I just ran 'guix pull'
without offloading.
