I know the whatis updates on Debian were very fast. It's package system automatically fired off a trigger whenever a package installed or updated man pages that performed a whatis update. The updates too a few seconds at most to run.
It looks like a full makewhatis run versus a mandb run isn't that much of a savings. A full makewhatis run on my box just took all of 23 seconds. But, I only have 351 packages on my box. Someone with a fully loaded Source Mage box might see a larger savings.
