Summary
If you're running dotnet build from the command line and wondering why Visual Studio feels snappier on the same project, this is your answer. It enables MSBuild Server via MSBUILDUSESERVER=1, which caches evaluation results across CLI builds the same way VS does with its long-lived process. You'll see the biggest wins on repos with many projects or gnarly Directory.Build.props chains. Straightforward setup, but don't expect miracles in VS itself since it already does this under the hood. Good for local dev workflows and CI agents that run sequential builds of the same codebase.
