I immediately thought about some Java (Gradle) projects at work that take 10 minutes to build, and other transpiled javascript projects that take an hour or so. What am I doing with my life?

An hour? For JavaScript? Wtf?

Babel + a million lines of Javascript, and a few other build steps. Durying development, only the required modules are built, so it takes only a few minutes to get up and running, but a full build takes ~1 hour and produces ~100mb in bundles.
