Bazel is very slow and heavy and only Google uses it.

Bazel has been significantly faster than cmake/make on the codebases I've tried it on. It has a bunch of warts, but it has been a better framework to build on than anything else I've encountered.

I'm probably biased as I write and maintain Starlark for C++ codebases on a daily basis.

In my benchmarks Bazel was the fastest of the lot, including Meson with Ninja.

Did you publish your benchmarks anywhere?
