Unfortunately, swift-build is what Xcode has been using for years now, and has major performance issues: https://forums.swift.org/t/target-dependency-graph-computation-performance-too-slow/81552/11 https://forums.swift.org/t/target-dependency-graph-computati...

I mean... "In projects with many local Swift packages (~160 packages, ~2,100 targets), the "Compute target dependency graph" phase takes 60+ seconds" I'm doubting this is a comparable setup for the vast majority of swift users. Is it unfortunate for people who land on this edge case - yes. My experience shows it's fast and our iOS apps build faster than a feature parity Android app.
