You don't have to pick through 4000+ packages, you only
have to choose the type of installation you prefer or
to search the packages you want by looking at the
sections you are interested in.

And if you care about time you should avoid installing
unnecessary packages, which can start ram and time
consuming daemons, or need additional configuration by
the user.
