Description
When repeatedly compiling a project which has excluded packages the reported "elapsed times" grows after each compile.
Steps to Reproduce:
New VCL forms application
Project | Options | Packages
Uncheck some or all.  The more you uncheck the larger the slowdown.
Click OK.
Switch to code editor, right click and "View Messages"
Compile
Make message view larger so you can read "Elapsed Time"
Compile repeatedly and observe the elapsed time values.
Workarounds
Any of the following:
1) Close and reopen the project
2) Do not disable any packages for the project
    (also edit the .dproj file with notepad and ensure there are no "excluded packages" entries).

The problem is definitely caused by having disabled packages in the project and may also be caused by other project settings.
