1) Don't include what you don't need
2) Don't use boost (their headers are too big)
3) Don't use Windows (the operating system and filesystems are too slow)
 3.b) don't use MinGW (it uses sub-processes a lot, which are slow on Windows)

PS: this list is for development of Qt. Your problem does not seem related to 
Qt at all, much less about the development of the libraries.
