Sorry, could not reply yesterday.
First time the DB was built it took more than 13 hours to complete.
Not exactly sure how much, i left the computer on to complete this while
going home from work. From home I checked once and saw that it was still
running. Then it was almost 13 hours after starting.

no problem. we are here for this only, :)
And this is only for the first time. Next time I again ran
build_kernel_data.sh , it was something around 1.5 - 2 hours. Now
test_kernel.sh is running on another terminal, lets see how much time it
takes.

64bit, 4 core, 8GB ram, CPU MHz: 3000.000 hyperthreading not there.
Just one thing, your test_kernel.sh was taking NR_CPU as 4, I hardcoded
that to 8. Can that be the problem?
