    There might be some savings to be had with some sort of local package cache over 10GiB Ethernet.

      Omitting grub and using systemd-boot might also take a few seconds off.

    It’s fast, but you are only installing base, linux and grub.

    base-devel should also be there, since it’s assumed to be installed by any PKGBUILD you’d want to build with makepkg.

    But yes. It does what it said it would do: Install a basic, minimal Arch system in just over a minute.

      I disagree, making your own packages is nice, but it’s not like it’s needed. I know multiple people who don’t touch the AUR or custom pkgbuilds at all

    I don’t quite understand the point of these speedruns since there’s usually not a defined end target and there are so many variables which are not under the user/installer’s control, like disk, processing speed
