Is there some reason configure caches are unsuitable to
gain speedup there?

I regularly build with experimental versions in which the 'configure' tests themselves differ from run to run, and where configure caches would give me incorrect results. So I never use caches.

I have to wait for an unreasonably long period of time whenever I change anything that requires reconfiguration, and this happens quite frequently to me (often several times per day).

one just 35 seconds long.

It's a 35-second wait in an edit-build-run cycle, and that's wayy too long. I typically give up and work on something else for a while. The mental context-switching overhead is extremely annoying.

I would greatly appreciate it if 'configure' ran faster.
