I think there is a massive difference in compile times between idiomatic C and C++, so its problematic to be lumping them together. But there is also some selection bias since large projects tend to migrate from C to C++.
C++ compile times are why I often stick to C, which compiles nearly instantly.
You can always upgrade to Dlang with modern features and conveniences that has comparable compilation time to C for the most parts (excluding CTFE).
