Incremental build in VS takes 1:40 for me, which is more than 4 seconds which the forum alleges is the proper amount of time to build DMD.
This may be an msbuild script issue, or because DMD is built with DMD instead of LDC, or the build script improperly uses all-at-once builds.
Either way, I consider this a critical bug. It should take 2 seconds to tweak and line and incremental-build, not 2 minutes.

+1 a focus on build speed would be more than appreciated... whatever that is.
- LDC linker step is slow
- dub network check are slow
- dub dependency resolution may be slow
The experience is not _that_ good when you don't have a custom makefile... which is what noone should do anymore.
