Disable Windows Defender on your source folders (or just altogether to see the difference). Someday MS will figure out a good balance with all this.

Ut helps somewhat but the difference still seems to be around 30%.

Windows Defender scans every file before the OS hands it off, so builds with lots of files with really, really suck.
