Just run current firmware from last september or later and keep the pi4 standing up on its side naked, it will never throttle no matter what you throw at it. (unless maybe your room is 80F or more)
I've had my pi4 compile stuff for days on end and it does not throttle if the above setup is followed.

- threatofrain 7y agoI'd still recommend a fan or something because the Pi 4 still gets quite hot, like around 50c idle without cooling solutions, and throttling only starts at 80c, which is crazy hot to touch.
