  Review pull-requests on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs

I have, I would sometimes do a nixpkgs-review of the mass "rebuild" PRs for Nixpkgs example PR. Hard to know how long it took to build as I would just let it "cook" on my build server while I did other things. The other thing is that nix gives unique names to all built packages and utilizes "maximal sharing" thereof, so everything gets memo-ized on future runs.

If you want to take nix for a spin, i would recommend trying home-manager. It's essentially NixOS, but for dot files. It can install packages and services in addition to manage configuration. Also, I've been able to get it work on NixOS, WSL2, ubuntu, and macOS. Personal configuration if you're curious how it would look.
