This made me wonder also. I've just started getting into programming in
the real world and the times seemed way off to me. So I went over and
talked with one of the programmers here at work (Thankfully he's a gamer
also and didn't think I was crazy asking about this). Turns out that the
large programs and the times it takes are actually pretty accurate.
