On my old i7-950, simple demo (cairo_clock) compiles (in release
mode) below 4 minutes and uses 1.8GB of RAM (linux, one core
used).
Rebuild is done in about 3 seconds.
I think Windows may introduce some problems in case of parallel
access to files (especially if something is deleted). But I have
no idea why your builds last so long. :/
