I think I messed up and ran against a slightly different version. The
numbers confirmed with 3.19 are:

do_bundle_initramfs: Elapsed time: 0.03 seconds 
do_compile: Elapsed time: 78.07 seconds 
do_compile_kernelmodules: Elapsed time: 35.23 seconds 
do_configure: Elapsed time: 0.60 seconds 
do_deploy: Elapsed time: 14.39 seconds 
do_fetch: Elapsed time: 0.04 seconds 
do_install: Elapsed time: 2.02 seconds 
do_kernel_checkout: Elapsed time: 10.67 seconds 
do_kernel_configcheck: Elapsed time: 8.03 seconds 
do_kernel_configme: Elapsed time: 70.41 seconds 
do_kernel_link_vmlinux: Elapsed time: 0.03 seconds 
do_package: Elapsed time: 33.48 seconds 
do_packagedata: Elapsed time: 2.30 seconds 
do_package_qa: Elapsed time: 4.94 seconds 
do_package_write_ipk: Elapsed time: 68.72 seconds 
do_package_write_rpm: Elapsed time: 44.33 seconds 
do_patch: Elapsed time: 56.43 seconds 
do_populate_lic: Elapsed time: 0.14 seconds 
do_populate_sysroot: Elapsed time: 0.16 seconds 
do_shared_workdir: Elapsed time: 0.04 seconds 
do_sizecheck: Elapsed time: 0.03 seconds 
do_strip: Elapsed time: 0.03 seconds 
do_uboot_mkimage: Elapsed time: 0.02 seconds 
do_unpack: Elapsed time: 5.06 seconds 
do_validate_branches: Elapsed time: 0.69 seconds 

To get the numbers:

bitbake linux-yocto -c cleansstate
bitbake linux-yocto
$ (cd tmp/buildstats/linux-yocto-qemux86-64/201502230954/linux-yocto-3.19+gitAUTOINC+8897ef68b3_43b9eced9b-r0/; grep El * | sed s/linux-yocto-3.19+gitAUTOINC+8897ef68b3_43b9eced9b-r0// | sed s/^.*:://)

So configcheck is better but the other times still seem high.

Cheers,

Richard
