If it takes 20 seconds, you go for a coffee or switch the window to start web browsing, but if it takes only 2 seconds, you can wait without being distracted. So it's more than just saving 18 seconds for each build. It wouldn't interrupt your flow.

our builds usually take 1-4 hours on windows with crazy conan. even cached binaries don't help much. a simple rebase could last 2 days.
