Boom setup on a 90 ton vs a 130 ton, night and day difference

Last month I had back to back jobs on a 90 ton Grove and then a 130 ton Liebherr. Setting up the 90 took me almost 45 minutes with all the jib sections and line reeving. The 130 was ready in under 20, the self-rigging boom just made sense for the site. I used to think bigger cranes were just about capacity, but the time savings on assembly is where the real difference shows. Does anyone else factor setup time into their equipment choices, or is it all about the lift chart for you guys?
