[Insight-developers] Long CMake configuration time on Windows?

[David Cole]

1st configures of ITK with Visual Studio typically take on the order
of 5 to 7 minutes, with each try_compile operation taking on the order
of 1 second.

Over an hour total and 10 seconds each is indeed very slow...

Do you happen to have a virus checker installed that's analyzing files
in the build tree as they're being produced?
