The biggest improvement isn't the compile time, it's the fact that the memory working set for g++ when compiling the previous gnuradio_swig_python.cc file was 650 MB. This would cause massive swap thrashing on machines with say, 512 MB of RAM, or less, and drive the compilation time up to potentially hours.
This is great! I have a fairly new machine with 1G ram and a dual core AMD cpu, and compiling GNU Radio used to bring the computer to its knees :), so this is a great improvement. It is also good news as I intend to run GNU Radio on my EKIFA single board computer, which only has 128MB of RAM. -- Trond Danielsen
