So fast SD cards run about 5-10MB/s write speed, a little more read.
SSDs are 100x faster than that, typically (300MB/s read, 400MB/s
write are typical values). USB 2.0 is 480Mbps or 48MB/s (in
practice more like 20-30MB/s), so even a USB attached drive is going
to be 6x faster than a fast SD card. Note: I=E2=80=99ve not measured any
of these rates from an RPi B, mind you, so YMMV.

Slow SD cards can be 10x slower or worse than faster ones.
Especially with UFS since it=E2=80=99s a rewrite in place FS.

Thumb drives are little better than SD cards here, alas.

That=E2=80=99s a long way of saying that a good USB + SSD or USB +
HDD would cut your buildworld time substantially. At a guess,
by a factor of 4-8 to between 5-10 hours.

Good luck with your installworld.
