I assume that most of the time is spent generating the fake source file
(in wanna-build), then feeding that to edos-builddebcheck (perl) which
uses add_sources (python) to transform it to a Packages file. The
actualy edos-debcheck run is not the bottle neck. This should be easily
verifiable by observing "ps -A".

If the edos-debcheck people could provide a version that has the
builddebcheck part implemented in ocaml, I’m sure things would be
considerably faster.

Other than then, I have no idea for a quick fix.
