   Guys, slow down. I keep hearing this "Ninja is faster" argument, but has 
anyone bothered to actually **look** at what's making the Windows build so 
slow? Hint: it's not MSBuild.
   
   Besides, there's another, more fundamental problem with the CMake build: the 
debug build doesn't use the debug-mode dependencies that were installed by 
vcpkg, and consequently, a test is failing. 10 internet points to anyone who 
tells me why (I know the answer). This is a direct consequence of CMake being 
fundamentally broken at the architecture level. No amount of using different 
generators will fix that.
   
   To summarize, messing around with Ninja versus VS does exactly nothing to 
improve the build.
