In Cygwin I've experienced just opening python can take in the order of 10 seconds, I've found it quicker to just run a small Linux VM with a shared folder, or switch to Linux completely.

I use make -j with no number to let make pick how to multitask, builds went from near 2 minutes to 30 - 40 seconds.

It may lock up your computer if it saturates one of your busses, if you have an ssd and enough ram you should be fine.

I'll be diving into this soon, just figured i would put out some feelers into the community.
