Use /debug:fastlink linker option to improve link performance
/debug:fastlink improve build performance and reduce resources consumption. When this linker oprion is used the linker-produced program database (PDB) files doesn’t have any private symbol information. Debug information is distributed among input object and library files, and the linker PDB just serves as an indexing database. Obviously, this provides a huge performance benefit for the daily developer builds. fastlink PDB files cannot be shared with another developer on the team or uploaded directly to symbol server. There is spcial tooling which is able to create a full PDB from the /debug:fastlink PDB on demand: mspdbcmf: [1]. The integration of mspdbcmf is beyond the scope of this change.
