Your MINIMUM_PPS file contains the entire kernel configuration and unless you want to tweak additional options (compiler flags and optimization settings for example), there is no need to modify make.conf. > I wasn't sure if that was necessary.

A buildworld takes considerably longer than a kernel build. If a kernel takes hours, a buildworld could be a few days... you must be using a very slow machine. A kernel build on my Centrino 1.6GHz takes only a few minutes. - Bartosz
