Try to split dozen of packages you need into -doc and -base subpackages.
And I believe very soon you'll realize how much this "benefit" costs ;-)

Seriously speaking, in order to not waste time for compiling packages,
use binary repositories or run bulk builds and don't "wait" for them, i.e.
use prebuilt packages.
