I just switched over to Win10 and was very disappointed with the compile time vs what I had with Win7. I disabled the McAfee Live scanner and went from 5:45 down to 0:35 with the scanner turned off. Seems like a pain having to disable the scanner before every compile! Was using Norton on the Win7 machine but was talked into McAfee by computer salesman, Bad Decision.

even in McAfee you can define exclusions...
Norton is no better just because it has other (less stringent) defaults ...

In particular put a scan exclusion on the Arduino build folder.
On windows these can normally be found at
C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\arduino_build*
where username needs to be changed to your name.
A wild card needs to be used as a different build number gets added.
