Indeed. Here's what I see in one of my machines at work (Core i7-7820X):
Fri Jul 20 16:31:38 2018 >>> sys-apps/util-linux-2.32.1
merge time: 1 minute and 40 seconds.
Fri Aug 3 14:38:40 2018 >>> sys-apps/util-linux-2.32.1
merge time: 1 minute and 40 seconds.
Wed Nov 14 16:49:40 2018 >>> sys-apps/util-linux-2.33
merge time: 4 minutes and 24 seconds.
Tue Feb 5 14:21:40 2019 >>> sys-apps/util-linux-2.33.1
merge time: 4 minutes and 24 seconds.
Not sure what causes it.
