Just want to chime in that I build electron all the time and never see 
such crazy long build times.

hw.model: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 12-Core Processor
hw.physmem: 137276297216

poudriere.conf:

USE_TMPFS=no
ALLOW_MAKE_JOBS=yes
CCACHE_DIR=/ccache

the result:

===>  Cleaning for electron42-42.3.3
build of devel/electron42 | electron42-42.3.3 ended at Sun Jun 14 
09:09:20 UTC 2026
build time: 02:17:09
