I'm not using the default options, as I said.

I can reproduce the rebuilding for rgl, but not for other packages I
tried. I vaguely remember a similar issue for another package, which
also used autoconf. So this indeed might be a bug in devtools/pkgload
or some unfortunate interplay between load_all() and autoconf's
configure.
In general, it seems that both RStudio and devtools just use the
package directory, and the object files are in src/. For all the
packages I tried, I did not see an unneeded full rebuild.

I'm working in RStudio on a Mac, in case that makes any difference.
Yes, RStudio probably does its own thing in "Install and restart". The
pre-clean of course removes the object files from the package src/
directory, so the next load_all() will need to recompile everything.
But why did step 5 recompile everything? Here's what you left out of
the quote:
4. Click "Install and Restart" button again
This is the fast build I was talking about: no recompiling.
5. devtools::load_all(".")
This does the full compile again, so it's slow.
