Meinersbur added a comment. During a trial phase while compiling everything twice with ccache I got the following results.

The difference is most pronounced with changes such as rG3e8d1e8b12ba9017b861fff94afdd4a29b39de17 <https://reviews.llvm.org/rG3e8d1e8b12ba9017b861fff94afdd4a29b39de17>: cache hit (direct) 0 cache hit (preprocessed) 0 cache miss 2245 cache hit rate 0.00 % vs cache hit (direct) 0 cache hit (preprocessed) 2235 cache miss 10 cache hit rate 99.55 % (the misses come from compilations with warning diagnostics) In D104601#2831951 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D104601#2831951>, @dblaikie wrote: > One of the concerns I'd have, for instance (have you done some broad testing > of these patches on sizable code bases?) is that it wouldn't surprise me if > clang had some scalability bugs/issues with very long source lines - so it > might be necessary to introduce some (arbitrary?) newlines to break up the > code.

However, I think the request is understandable an I would implement it on request. It introduces a new problem having to determine where no newlines mat be introduced (e.g. within a #pragma).
