It takes about two minutes to build Emacs on my 3.6GHz/8 core build
machine, and about half of that is single-threaded (I did a long
analysis of the build process on a thread here somewhere).  So getting
down to 1 minute is probably feasible.

But convincing somebody to buy a CI server like that will probably
remain a beautiful dream.
