That also depends massively on the used libraries and the structure of the code. A 100kloc c file could build superfast. Whereas multiple c++ totalling about 10kloc that include use use lots of Boost stuff can take ages compared to that.
Try compiling a real big project, enterprise scale e.g. Linux kernel.
