Hello,

Are you using cmake with a Makefiles generator on Windows ?

 From my experiments here are my observations:

-Makefiles on Windows: slow

-Visual ide generator : fast

-Makefiles on linux: fast

I found that when there are many targets in a project, cmake has to
write many small files on the HD which seems to be very slow on windows.

So, I just did some timing on ParaView which is a big project (includes VTK). This is all on windows. It seems that ninja is the slow one. The makefile and VS 10 generator were about the same. This is a second configure, so it does not include the initial try-compile stuff which can be slow on windows.

vs 10   real    2m41.935s

ninja    real    3m33.807s

unix makefiles  real    2m43.696s
