To re-iterate what previously stated: the point is not production
deployments, but rather development and testing cycles. The experience will
be compared to things like docker & friends where the feedback look happens
in seconds, not minutes or dozens of seconds.

As a developer, with an xfs-backed local juju lxd provider and something
like apt-cacher-ng or deb-squid-proxy installed I expect and want "juju
deploy ubuntu" (or any other minimal reactive-based charm) to take seconds.
Anything less than that gets in the way of doing proper TDD.
