So I should hack apart my install just to get to some basic level of compiler performance?

Last time I looked at boost pulling in any header would pull in all of them, that's why it takes so long to compile. In this day with any modern C++0x11 compiler I don't really see the need for boost.

This has literally never been true.

Just include a header and see how it affects your compile time. I can't confirm what you're saying for example.
