German term or phrase: Stricherlmachen
Also, how's the last part sound?

Die Auformulierung der abervielen Details ist sehr aufwendig, sind viele Stunden in das Stricherlmachen investiert worden. Es schreibt sich gewissermassen die Information mit der Zeit ein, vergleichbar mit dem Hochladen eines Sprechers.

Working out the myriads of details is very laborious; many hours have been invested in the Stricherlmachen. The information inscribes itself to a certain extent over time, comparable to uploading data to a computer.
