I already have my own binhost for a couple of Gentoo systems and even though these systems don't have to compile anything themselves, installing ~100 to ~200 binpkgs takes way more than an hour of installation time. Arch Linux' pacman only takes a fraction of this time for the very same task. I know that I compare apples with pears here but even reducing the current portage time by 50% would be a huge improvement.
