Why is rustdoc from nightly 1.6x faster than my build from master

Have tried and failed to find the reason why “rustdoc --test” with the rustdoc version that I get with rustup is 1.6x (13s vs 22s) faster than the rustdoc that is built during test of rustc (./x.py test).

Have used an clean clone from master to build. Is there some config to be done in the config.toml file or is there some difference in how the two versions is built that is the “problem”?

test file lib.rs
/// ```
/// let five = 5;
///
/// assert_eq!(6, add_one(5));
/// fn add_one(x: i32) -> i32 {
///     x + 1
/// }
/// ```
... 258 times
/// ```
/// let five = 5;
///
/// assert_eq!(6, add_one(5));
/// fn add_one(x: i32) -> i32 {
///     x + 1
/// }
/// ```
pub fn add_one(x: i32) -> i32 {
    x + 1
}
