There are two things you can do to reduce your packaging speed: 1) add MOZ_DISABLE_GECKOVIEW=1 to your mozconfig, like at [1]. This stops bundling up the GeckoView libraries and might also stop building some tests at package time -- I can't recall the details. 2) build with Gradle and IntelliJ! The Gradle packaging is much, much faster than |mach package && mach install| for incremental builds. Start at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Android/IDEs#IntelliJ_or_Android_Studio_with_Gradle .
