      When compiling the compilers we can do two things that should improve compilation time:
      1. We can set arch parameter to match architecture we are using.

      2. We can use profile-guided optimization to optimize compilers to specifically build mongodb. This is done by first compiling the compilers with -fprofile-generate, compiling mongodb to collect the profile and later re-compiling the compilers with optimizations, based on the collected profile with -fprofile-use.
