    Description

      I've built Qt Creator 6 with the same git checkout, same CMake version, same ninja version with Qt 5.15.2 and Qt 6.2.0 with MinGW 8.1 and MSVC 2019 and both suffered a considerable compilation speed decrease. (Windows 10, Antivirus disabled, on a AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16-Core Processor 3.49 GHz 64GB machine)

      No PCH

      Compiler Qt 5.15.2 Qt 6.2.0 Speed decrease
      MinGW 382s 509s -33%
      MSVC 309s 501s -62%

      My Qt Creator configure script looks like:

      if (CMAKE_ARGC LESS 4)
          message("Usage cmake -P " ${CMAKE_ARGV2} " <platform e.g. mingw/msvc>")
          return()
      endif()
      
      if (CMAKE_ARGV3 STREQUAL "mingw")
          set(QT_PLATFORM mingw81_64)
      elseif(CMAKE_ARGV3 STREQUAL "msvc")
          set(QT_PLATFORM msvc2019_64)
      endif()
      
      execute_process(COMMAND
          ${CMAKE_COMMAND}
          -D "CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=c:/Qt/${CMAKE_ARGV3}/${QT_PLATFORM};c:/llvm/${CMAKE_ARGV3}"
          -D "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/install-${CMAKE_ARGV3}"
          -G Ninja
          -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
          -D BUILD_QBS=OFF
          -D WITH_TESTS=OFF
          -D BUILD_WITH_PCH=OFF
      
          -S repo
          -B build-${CMAKE_ARGV3}
      )
      

      The differences between the MinGW build.ninja for compiler flags were:

      A GitHub Actions build with 0% ccache usually was taking 2 1/2 hours, but now the MSVC build jumped to 4hours.

      With PCH

      I've compiled with -D BUILD_WITH_PCH=ON and the results are below:

      Compiler Qt 5.15.2 Qt 6.2.0 Speed decrease
      MinGW 354s 447s -26%
      MSVC 213s 341s -60%

      With ccache

      This compilation was done without pch but with ccache 4.4.1.

         -D BUILD_WITH_PCH=OFF
         -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache
         -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache
      

       

      Compiler Qt 5.15.2 cold cache Qt 5.15.2 warm cace Qt 6.2.0 cold cache Qt 6.2.0 warm cache Speed decrease warm cache
      MinGW 559s 208s 668s 230s -10%
      MSVC 389s 91s 589s 110s -20%

      The ccache test would mean that the compilation was skipped and only moc and linking steps were present.

      The linker flags for CMakeProjectManager.dll changed like this:

      Building with Mac On macOS it twice as bad as well: Attached is the comparison spreadsheet. Data in spreadsheet is recorded with samep project  with Qt 5 and Qt 6.
      * qmake is used.
      * The qmake step is not part of the times recorded (only make)
      * C++17 is specified in the project for both Qt 5 and Qt 6.
      * Precompiled headers are used in both Qt 5 and Qt 6.
