No, it's not just you, running "emerge -uNDvp world" takes slightly over 18 minutes on my laptop (i5 M 430 @ 2.27GHz) - and when there was lot to update I had to wait over 1hr to just get the list of packages. I wonder if there's some profiling tool for portage. Also: time FEATURES=-xattr emerge owncloud -v real 6m31.202s user 2m42.057s sys 2m1.541s
time FEATURES=xattr emerge owncloud -v real 30m15.632s user 22m44.369s sys 5m30.129s 5 times longer - for something that's essentially copying files.
