Hi For me it's more about correctness and reproducibility than build times, nonetheless, seems that the ninja build is significantly faster than the Make build:
Make: real 4m32.779s user 43m33.236s sys 0m52.940s CMake + Ninja: real 3m30.794s user 36m2.564s sys 0m56.368s Compiled on an g3.4xlarge with ebs Provisioned IOPS SSD io (115000 iops) Pedro.
