If I wanted absolute best compile times I'd go build a threadripper workstation, but I need mobility and can't always rely on an Internet connection.

I think part of it is because I don't care about mac computers. I'm interested in how the M1 - a consumer ARM chip - stacks up against the best x86_64 chip, not how it performs in one particular laptop.
