In my previous company Microsoft we used to work on a very large project. The average build time was about 35 minutes over there. It was time consuming to put your changes on build and wait for it to finish.
We used to do a remote desktop and it was hard to maintain various systems on my local and remote machine. I spin up a high power azure vm and used to it compile my code, and when the VM was not in use. I used to turn it off. It worked well in reducing time but it was a time consuming effort to turn on and off the VM.
I converted this pet project to a full time project. You can get an early access to the product.
Please let me know what do you think?
