A lot of that is done in a simulator on the computer, which usually builds very quick once you get the environment and simulation scripts written.
The full build to a bit file that can be loaded into hardware is an NP-hard optimization problem, so as your design approaches the limits of either the desired clock speed or the amount of space in the chip, it can become very slow.
