I set my minimum required version to 3.6, which should enable those
policies by default (if they're truly in 3.1 as you indicated).
My CMake scripts do a lot of work to build a "tree" of properties
connecting targets, so that I can recurse the targets my system
generates to process things. CMake does not natively offer the ability
to recurse targets created AFAIK. I suspect a lot of this logic is
what is causing the slow down, but at this point I have no tooling to
help me prove that.
I have included the developer list, maybe the CMake developers have
some insight for me as this doesn't seem to be a common user issue
from what I can tell.

I am not aware of any built in functionality that can generate
performance numbers for a project.
Have you made sure that the performance/parsing policies are set to
NEW or your cmake_minimum_required is sufficiently high, those can
have a significant improvement on configuration time.
Polices ( both in CMake 3.1 )
- CMP0054 'if parsing'
- CMP0053 'simplified variable reference and escape parsing'
--performance numbers for a project.

So I noticed over the years my CMake scripts take longer and longer to
configure/generate. Is there a mechanism to tell which parts of my
CMake scripts are slowest? I'd like to know how to optimize my CMake
scripts to reduce the time it takes to generate projects.
