Building Linux kernel on macOS natively

Excuse me, it took the auther 30-40 seconds (0m33.260s) to build the Linux kernel on an M2 with 32GB RAM? Surely that's a typo?

Looks like they're doing allnoconfig so there's not much to build.

With make allnoconfig it also takes <30s on a recent-ish Intel CPU (12th gen; i7 12700). As low as 20s if it's cached and with make -j20.

1. modern computers are insanely fast

2. they compiled a version of the kernel with as many configurable options disabled as possible

3. modern computers are insanely fast

The related Starina OS project looks pretty cool

This kind of work reminds me of early WSL1-era hacks
