The compose is the process that:

1) gets a list of pending requests
2) signs them accordingly
3) asks bodhi to push the pending requests
4) moves packages within tags accordingly in koji
5) uses mash to create new repos for:
  5.1) dist-f8-updates
  5.2) dist-f8-updates-testing
  5.3) dist-f9-updates
  5.4) dist-f9-updates-testing
  5.5) dist-f10-updates
  5.6) dist-f10-updates-testing
6) makes those repos multilib (still mash here)
7) generates update metadata for the above repos (which updates are
bugfix, security, need reboot, etc...)
8) touch appropriate bugs in bugzilla based on bodhi requests
9) wait for rsync to finish
10) send mails to fedora-package-announce
11) set all states correct in bodhi itself for the pending requests

That's the rough outline, and I likely have a few of the steps out of
order, and some of that is done in parallel.  The more package updates
added (that is unique packages, not unique updates for a given package),
the longer the compose process takes as there is more to consider for
multilib, more packages for createrepo to fiddle with, etc...

I'm not sure what you mean by this question.

I'll look again.
