Any sketch takes hours to compile, 1.8.19 and 2.x

[thepurplepig]

Describe the problem

Any sketch (around 6 I am working on, all with ESP32 different boards) takes hours to compile on my win10 core i7 PC. Antivirus is off. The same sketches compile in seconds on my pi using IDE 1.8.19 Originally I was using IDE 2.3.2 on Win PC. I thought it may be due to a space in my Windows user folder name, so I set up a portable 1.8.19 installation and completely removed all arduino stuff from everywhere aside from the portable installation. Same issue always. Yesterday I compiled the ESP-Mail-Client example, it was successful but compilation took 7 hours. I don't know what else I can try, any suggestions please.

I support you, although I don't have hours, but the compilation is indecently long. With the sdk version esp 32 3.0.0 and later, it became quite depressing to compile.
