A current pbuilder chroot takes 121 MB (containing build-essential already). How long does a '(mv $chroot foo; rm -Rf foo & cp $stash $chroot)' take for 121 MB on $small-arch? Please enlighten me, I am really interested since I (obviously) have no clue about the orders of magnitude of performance Debian runs on.
