Typically people have build servers for large compile jobs, and I hope for their sake that they have some incremental compile (ninja!) facilities!

I remember though, compiling UE4 in 2016, from scratch, was a half-day job on my non-potato PC.

In 2000, building our C codebase across Aix, HP-UX, Solaris, Windows 2000/NT for a new release took about a full day.

Straight C code, so no templates or whatever else traditionaly slows down C++ codebases.
