Additional, and likely main reason why this is: Official kernel builds go to a pair of kernel builder boxes which only build kernel, grub2, shim for secure boot. Since nothing else builds on them, they are mostly idle and ready and have lots of capacity. Scratch kernel builds go into the normal koji pool and get a random builder and are at lower priority than any official build, so they get pushed to the end of the queue. Once we have coprs up, it might be faster to build them there... kevin
