After correcting my stupid mistake, I got

pdfTeX:

real    21m43,063s
user    117m52,570s
sys    17m24,881s

LuaTeX:

real    21m14,749s
user    119m56,990s
sys    17m52,780s


N.B. This is with -j9 CPU_COUNT=9 and without
extractpdfmark. Also without the GS API (the CI
builds do use the GS API, which should speed
up the build by a constant amount that does not
depend on the TeX engine).

I am surprised that the difference is that small
(on the user time values, 2 minutes over 2 hours).
For me, this is completely acceptable.
