Re:How do you spend the five minutes a build takes?

Depends on your builds. Usually I work on parallel branches, if the time is longer than 30min.
A good strategy is to have fast and separate thorough/longer checks. My smoke builds try to be faster than 3min, the thorough builds, like for a PR or master update, could last 30min, but on some projects, esp with windows, about 2hrs.
Then it's good to switch to another branch to do some useful work.
