Cross OS filesystem performance is poor. The solution is to keep everything within WSL. Code stored, built & edited in WSL.
VSCode + WSL extension makes it possible to "edit" from host without loosing performance.

WSL2 is essentially a Hyper-V VM running Linux with some programs bridging between it and the Windows host -- or two such VMs with some additional bridging (for Wayland and audio) if WSLg is enabled.
