Not necessarily a fair comparison. A bit oranges vs apples there. Most of the Gatsby time is usually doing bundling of css, js, etc with Webpack. I would imagine if you did that with a Hugo site you would run into the initial 15-20 seconds to bundle & then a few seconds to convert all your markdown pages into static HTML pages. That said, I would assume Hugo still wins but not by near as much. So you can argue that Hugo is much faster, if you don't have a use for Webpack on your site. If you don't want the fancy bells & features Gatsby provides, you should for sure pick Hugo over it.
