If you do 'make allmodconfig' from the clean source tree,
some logs are displayed.

If you do that once again, no logs,
which means no recompilation of the 'conf' binary.

Of course, GNU Make evaluates some recipes due to the FORCE,
but the costs are quite small.



As for the cc1plus cost, I got a similar result.

Running scripts/gcc-plugin.sh directly
took me 0.5 sec, which is a fourth
of the allmodconfig run-time.

Actually, I did not know this shell script
was so expensive to run...

I also added Kees to CC.


Even if we are able to manage this script somehow,
Kconfig invocation still takes more than 1 sec
due to the current design.
