It's true that it's slow, but you only have to do it once, and you don't have to be around while it's building. As far as the RAM goes, that seems to be a limitation of qemu and the verstatilepb board. Maybe you can build another system based on a realview-pb-a8 or realview-pbx-a9 board and get 512 MB (maybe even 1024 MB), but that seems like more work and time than just waiting for your current system to finish.
