Benchmark compilation times

Why

We collect the results to better judge the DX, possibly detect glaring regressions and inconsistencies, but also out of curiosity, and to compare different hardware.

How

In the dev shell, checkout out latest master branch and run:

just bench-compilation

Notes

• Results between different commits might differ due to code & dependency changes, toolchain versions etc.
• Results between different OS might differ as e.g. we use mold only on Linux
• We do disable sccache and possibly other tools like it

Results

Feel free to append your results, along with information about your OS, hardware & setup.
