Nathan has just made an excellent post on this topic: https://blog.mozilla.org/nfroyd/2013/08/02/i-got-99-problems-and-compilation-time-is-one-of-them/
It would be interesting to measure the number of non-blank precompiled lines in each build, over time. This is probably going up faster than the number of overall source lines, possibly explaining why build times increase faster than just the increasing size of the code. Greg, I assume the build team has data on where time is spent in various phases of the build today. Can you point us to that data? Especially valuable if you have data over several releases.
