Extremely slow compiling

Same issue here. I do understand that an initial build takes longer, yet as Lennard puts it - why should subsequent tiny changes take also soooooo long to build.

I tried several of the suggested fixes from the answerhub and using /Yu build flag to have the compiler generate/use pre compiled headers, but it didn’t quite help, still slow.

Plus the IntelliSense thing isn’t working properly either. I rarely get any help from it and when I do it was after waiting for a couple of minutes in the 5+ region.

I’m using VS2013 in Win8.1 on a i7-740MQ with 8GB
