A comment on Storm 2.0. Parent comment
.NET Native, D, Delphi, Ada and Eiffel also have pretty fast compilers, while offering quite powerful languages.
Lets even pick Turbo Pascal 7.0 for MS-DOS, which was quite feature rich, and was able to compile very large programs in a couple of seconds.
Also Visual C++ with modules preview support, incremental compilation and linking is also reasonably faster than the FOSS alternatives.
It is only a matter how much money one is willing to invest into improving tooling support.
