Why is my ember-cli build time so slow on windows?

Ember-cli is building very slowly with ember server on windows.

Build successful - 13126ms.

TreeMerger (vendor)            | 3154ms
TreeMerger (stylesAndVendor)   | 2051ms
TreeMerger (appAndDependencies) | 1914ms
StaticCompiler                 | 1791ms

This is in contrast to the same project building in less that 1 second on a linux box.
