The problem, as far as I can determine, is not that the compilation
process takes longer, but that buffer/window update is slow.
For long compilations, with output more than a few kB, output is
"chunky". Updates seem to be in multiples of 4 kB, with delays
between them. Running strace supports this assumption.
I tried this as a "compilation":
time find /path/to/somewhere -ls
With "compile" (slow, chunky buffer update)
real 0m30.488s
user 0m0.032s
sys 0m0.036s
With "shell-command" (immediate buffer update)
real 0m0.027s
user 0m0.020s
sys 0m0.008s
From Bash, not within emacs
real 0m0.028s
user 0m0.016s
sys 0m0.012s
User and system times are effectively the same, but real
time differs by a factor of 1000.
