That's true. The general problem is not that the IDE is not

FPC is a fast compiler and more speed is obviously also nice. The
compiling is not the issue to me, it's the unresponsive IDE that gets
me. I would like it to be similir to other users experiences. For
example, you can print a large document and continue browsing your
text or changing some setting in the menus etc... It doesn't block you
from continuing. The Lazarus IDE does.
I compile very often - probably once every minute or two. I also
practise Test-Drive Development, which makes sure you compile often. I
would like to start a full build (which could take a while for large
projects) and continue writing fpdoc documentation or start a new unit
test (obviously without saving before the compile is complete) etc...
Try
ide\outputfilter.pas around line 295
if (Application<>nil) and (abs(LastProcessMessages-Now)>((1/86400)/3))
make it
if (Application<>nil) and
(abs(LastProcessMessages-Now)>((1/86400)/10))
and maybe add an "application.idle(flase);" too
