On my Lenovo P710 (2x2x6 core Xeon E5-2643 v4), Fedora 27 Linux

debug -Og build with gcc: 12:34
debug -Og build with clang: 12:55
opt build with clang: 11:51

Are you staturating all 52 cores during the buidls? Most of the increase in
build time is new Rust code, and icecream doesn't distribute Rust. So in
addition to some long compile times for final crates limiting the minimum
build time, icecream doesn't help much in the run-up either. This is why
I'm excited about the distributed build feature we're adding to sccache.

I'd still expect some improvement from the C++ compilation though.

Glad you finally got one! :)
