much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I would not say that necessarily. I asked the Gentoo people and they had similar setups with 12h. At 4GB ram it'll mainly come down to swapping, so disk speed.
If the 5 days were you experience, was it using a slow hdd?
Edit: remember to disable pgo, wherever you see it. It can double your compile times
Someone told me that Chromium builds for 2 days on a modern system. I know that Librewolf is smaller but the OP's system is much slower so that's how I assumed the build time
I built it 6 months ago on a 3700x, took 3h. Where firefox took 20 minutes
For reference my modern system sits well below 20 minutes without pgo, and below 40 with.
