Whatever it was that was making it take longer in 2.5.42-mm3 has made it go back to that of 2.5.43 vanilla. Note this is slower than 2.5.42 which is slower than 2.4.19.

The context switching has gone mad here and done heaps more work at the expense of kernel compilation time. No cpu time appears to have been wasted though.
