Not really helpful, but wanted to mention one thing. There is a check box in the Build properties of a project where in we can mention whther a project should be built fresh or not. If its checked, continuum will always do a complete checkout from the repository. If you uncheck it, it will do only an update from the repo, i.e. it will synch only the differences from the repo to the working directory and this should be much faster.
Anyways i am not sure of building directly on the source file system. Murali.
