You can always get roughly 2-3x the CPU performance of a laptop in a desktop (2x core count, higher clock due to much bigger heatsink). It makes sense to use a desktop for the compile times.

The most performance you can get in a mobile CPU right now is an 8 core ryzen. On a desktop you can get the 3990x at 64 cores. That's at least 8x the performance.
