Why takes it so long time to update <thing>-selinux?

Updating takes time, but the selinux things do take moore time. Why?

It looks like all the SELinux rules (for all known software) are being re-verified every time a change is made.

There are about 350000 rule lines that needs to be converted into binary form and every time you make a change, all the rule lines must be converted again. It is like compiling a big program.
