I'm currently working on a C++ project that takes about 10 minutes to do a clean build (Plus another 5 minutes in CI to actually run the tests). Incremental builds are set up, and work quite well, but any header changes can easily result in a 5 minute incremental build.
As much as I'd like to try, I don't see mutation testing being worthwhile for this project outside of maybe a few isolated modules that could be tested independently. It's a highly interconnected codebase, and I've personally reviewed (or written) every test, so I already know they're of fairly high quality, but it would be nice to be able to measure.
