The GNU compiler (which is mingw) is notoriously slow. Turning on precompiled headers will help, but the compilation itself is significantly slower than the MS or Intel compilers. Make also slows some stuff down. Using the -j2 or -j4 option to GNU make can be a significant improvement.

But if all else fails, just go start a pot of coffee when you launch a build.

I'll try solutions on trolls list, and -j2/4 options.
Thanks
