I have been a Gentoo user for the past 3+ years. I tried Ubuntu about 6 months ago. I had more issues with Ubuntu, so I went back to Gentoo.
Install times are not that long for the bulk of the packages. There are a few that take awhile, but they are well known. KDE, Gnome, Xorg, OpenOffice
With Ubuntu, I couldn't get a couple of packages that weren't in the repository to work. I tried the debian version of DVD Styler and had compatibility issues, I believe.
