Many hours sounds odd.  Bootstrapping takes a while on my low-power
machines as well, but even my home server (a Mele with Allwinner A10
processor) bootstraps in less than an hour and a half.

Then bootstrapping is probably the right choice, indeed, because just
"make" probably won't be much quicker, and this way you don't have to
worry about the case where "make" fails.
