My 2 cent:

You mount or clone whatever you want and use `dub add-local`.
2. multicore building - entire project in D builds faster than
C++ one (I have two implementation of the same), but in case of
incremental building C++ faster.
I always assumed this to be the main point why people are asking
for a better build tool, but it's not sth. dub can do atm. It's a
limitation of the compiler that requires various changes and a
slight redesign of our build model.
In C++ incremental rebuilds are simple as you compile each file
individually anyhow, but that's the crux for why C++ compilations
are so slow in the first place.
Compiling multiple modules at once provides lots of speedups as
you do not have to reparse and analyze common/mutual imports, but
on the downside it cannot be parallelized that well.
Dub could parallelize building individual packages/sub-packages
(target + dependencies) right now though.
3. dub single build mode does not caches builds so it builds
entire project every time.
Could you please file an issue with a test case for that.
Why do you use single build mode in the first place?
