Do you want to build or do you want to fly?

IMHO, having built a glacial build IV-P before the (super) fast build was
available, I would estimate the difference to be around 1000 hours. Is your
time worth more than $9/hour ? I think it probably is. I also think this is a
no-brainer because for a <5% delta in the cost of your AC you reduce the
acquisition time by >25%. Go for the fast build, it is an option I wish I had
at the time.
