5+ minutes isn't bad, actually. On my (fairly beefy) desktop building stage1 takes about that long. There isn't really too much to do to help with compile times right now, unfortunately :( The only advice I have is "don't bootstrap": use the stage1 make targets. Their names slip my mind, so someone else will have to toss them out there. `make check-stage1` in particular is useful, though, and `make check-stage1-std NO_REBUILD=1` can help if you're working on the std lib and not the compiler.
