How do you deal with the horrendously slow on-the-fly compile times in dev mode?

I wonder how anyone gets any work done when they have to wait 10 seconds on every page load on a M3 Macbook Air

Turbopack helps, ever used C, C++, Rust, Scala, Swift in large scale projects?

Back in 1999 - 2001, every time I wanted to do a make clean; make all in a C based product (actuall TCL with lots of C extensions), it took at least one hour build time.

I guess I am spoiled by Java and Angular then.

Both compile for the same time as a page load in Next dev mode, but then everything is smooth sailing (and Angular also does hot-reloading well)
