I'm experiencing significantly slower build times in Visual Studio 2017 (and later versions) compared to Visual Studio 2010. For the same large project (~400MB), the build time has increased from around 20-30 seconds in Visual Studio 2010 to 45-60 seconds in Visual Studio 2017 and newer versions.
These are the setting that I have tried in visual studio 2017 but did not have any significant changes in time taken for build
1) Tools > Options > "Projects and Solutions" > "Build and Run": Set "MSBuild project build output verbosity" to "Diagnostic" (also tried verbosity to "Minimal", "Normal", and "
Quiet").
2) Tools > Options > Debugging: Disabled "Enable diagnostic tool while debugging".
3) Tools > Options > Environment > General: Disabled "Enable client-rich experience" and "Automatically adjust visual experience".
4) Tools > Options > Environment > Accounts: Disabled "Synchronous settings".
5) Tools > Options > "Projects and Solutions" > "Build and Run": Increased "Max number of parallel project builds" from 16 to 32.

Are there any other Configuration or settings available to reduce the time taken for build in Visual studio 2017 or higher versions ?
