Checking the modification times might slow incremental builds down #3087

Description

@kritzcreek

This is something I noticed with @garyb lately. The compiler spends a significant amount of time between startup and printing the first progress messages and I initially suspected the parser. However that time is severely reduced when I previously cleared the output directory.

I'm now suspecting that checking the modification times for externs files might be the culprit (This is on windows, I still need to check it on Linux).
