I don't think that checks out.
Java's compilation is ridiculously fast.

According to this, javac itself can compile up to 100k lines per second, while Maven/Gradle is an order of magnitude slower.
The only info I found for Rust mentions something along the 5k lines/second mark (on a different computer), but it is at most roughly the same, if not slower than a java build tool.

Let's see how it performs on M3 Pro: cargo loc --filter-platform=aarch64-apple-darwin ...

Compiling dtparse v2.0.0 Compiling fclones v0.35.0 (/Users/piotr/Projects/fclones/fclones) Finished `dev` profile [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 9.75s Looks like it is about 80k LOC/s. Not bad. If pure javac can also do 100k LOC/s (which is definitely something I believe is possible) but then "Maven/Gradle is an order of magnitude slower" then my point stands. No-one uses pure javac to compile big projects.
