  1. Go to Build/Configuration Manager... and uncheck the projects that you are not working on. This way you only build the relevant project.

  2. Create a solution which only include project that you wish to modify. Copy the DLLs from other projects into a folder. Go to Build, Your_Project Properties... Reference Path, and add that folder.

  3. Switch to parallel MSBuild (by adding external tool), which can utilize all your CPU cores. Set arguments to multiproc and verbosity - minimal:

    /m /v:m

  4. Get rid of unused styles

  5. Use SSD

  6. If you're on a laptop, make sure your machine is set in high performance mode.

  7. Also refer to my old blog post
