A great deal of our objects are target specific. Almost everything
depends on CONFIG_USER_ONLY too. This means that full compilation takes
a very long time.
You might find ccache helps. For this kind of testing, nearly every
compile should be a cache hit, so the slow part is limited running
configure, make and preprocessing, and the final link.
