Well, not sure it would. If builds were tagged into f19-pending and the
tests ran from that, then tagged into f19, the max delay would be when
a newrepo just started and it has to wait for the next newrepo to be
added. The min delay would be that it gets added and newrepo starts
right then. 

So with current newrepo tasks about 13min per newrepo, so thats 13 or
26 min per build.

Hasn't this been discussed to death? We could have taken the hit in f18
and landed the new anaconda, or we could have reverted and taken the
hit in f19 to land the new anaconda, etc. It had to be done, sooner is
better than latter.
