I see you've never worked with mister "creates a project for every class" or any of his friends. C# compiles quickly, but MS build is very slow and it's noticeable when there are a lot of projects.

Just for fun, try compile with csc directly one day, it's an order of magnitude (at least) faster than with msbuild.

Perhaps I'll try your suggestion and compare make against msbuild...
It's much faster (http://flukus.github.io/2016/11/30/2016_11_30_Rediscovering-...), so is nant or just about any build tool. The problem is visual studio (and other developers) only know about .csproj files.
