If that were "all" there was to it we'd have simulated a human brain by now.

Didn't it take them a long ass time to do this for a fruit fly brain?

    Depends on when you start the timer. The fruit fly brain was only completely mapped recently. There's a simulation of it that runs on a laptop. If that simulation can run on a modern laptop and the map was otherwise available, then it likely could have been done on supercomputers in the decades prior.
