In C++ land I’ve experienced the gamut from multi-minute clean builds to 30 minutes to 1.5 hours on the latest & greatest CPUs, even with ccache. 14s sounds like paradise to me.

Honest question, is there really no way to know whether what you wrote is working or not without waiting 20min-1H?? That sounds like hell.

Where these incremental compilation?

That’s usually clean builds. Incremental builds can be in the instant to 1-5 min depending on what line of code you change (deploy a new compiler and you’re probably rebuilding everything).

Oh ok, that makes much more sense.
