(I should have put that in <>'s.)

Change of quote order to avoid confusions, moving the below from the
bottom of the original message:

Such is not true for the below comparison/contrast.

Actually, since the context for the 2 above is an incremental build
overall for each, such an comparison/contrast would not be so good.


The prior (nearly?) from-scratch builds available for getting times:


143arm64-quarterly built 35544 failed 118 : 60:06:37
Host OSVERSION: 1600007
Jail OSVERSION: 1403000

<https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/builds/default:quarterly:143arm64:fce61163b43e:ampere4>


150arm64-quarterly built 35501 failed 154 : 78:25:36
Host OSVERSION: 1600000
Jail OSVERSION: 1500068

<https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/builds/default:quarterly:150arm64:0d8fad0cea6d:ampere4>


So: 15.0-RELEASE had fewer built, more failed, and the longer time by a
notable factor compared to 14.3-RELEASE. Both had chromium build/timeout
its build after about 48 hrs.
