So you'd say :
Prototype ship, any class = x3 normal cost and time (keeps players
from continually designing the "ship of the month")
Factory tooling = x10 ship cost, allows ships in this class to be
built at -10% cost/time.  Can be bought multiple times (eg pay 5000NPV
and you can built 100NPV frigates at a real cost of 50NPV).

Which means part of the construction time wasn't in the yards, it was
back in the prefab shops, so they weren't really building ships in 4
days.  Still, yard time is expensive and prefab is easier to set up
than building new slips.
