We can get the build time easily via Xcode. It keeps track of all your builds by default and you can examine the times and logs from the Report Navigator.
Duration appears in the activity viewer after a build, alongside the "Succeeded" message. If you are running the app, the status will be replaced by the running status before you can see the duration.
$> defaults write com.apple.dt.Xcode ShowBuildOperationDuration YES
The builds duration appears after a build, alongside with the “Succeeded” message.
Run Xcode Build Timing Summary to get build time insights and find bottlenecks - run it via: Product => Perform Action => Build With Timing Summary.

Get help
$ xcrun simctl help
usage: simctl [--set <path>] [--profiles <path>] <subcommand> ...
simctl help [subcommand]
Command line utility to control the Simulator
Run the list subcommand to get a list of the available runtimes, device types, devices, and device pairs:
$ xcrun simctl list
-- iOS 12.1 --
iPhone 5s (CC96B643-067E-41D5-B497-1AFD7B3D0A13) (Shutdown)
iPhone 6 (7A27C0B9-411A-4BCD-8A67-68F00DF39C1A) (Shutdown)
iPhone 6 Plus (A5918644-8D46-4C67-B21E-68EA25997F91) (Shutdown)
iPhone 6s (1AB5A4EB-2434-42E4-9D2C-42E479CE8BDC) (Shutdown)
…
One such subcommand is boot, which starts up the specified device, making it available for interaction:
$ xcrun simctl boot $UUID
$ xcrun simctl shutdown $UUID
$ xcrun simctl erase $UUID
// Removes old simulators, which xcode no longer uses
$ xcrun simctl delete unavailable
// xcrun allows you to invoke developer tools from the terminal. // In this case simctl, which is a command line utility to control the iOS Simulator. // simctl has the subcommand: openurl to open URLs in a given simulator // most of the cases you would like to open on the current booted device, so you add // the flag booted or type the simulator id.
$ xcrun simctl openurl booted "http://google.com"
// open app url
$ xcrun simctl openurl booted "ios-cobi://bike.cobi/app?state=w4BZrykXl7..."
// Print the UUID of the device in your simulator
$ xcrun simctl list | egrep '(Booted)'
iPhone X (9FED67A2-3D0A-4C9C-88AC-28A9CCA44C60) (Booted)
Get the list in structured format:
$ xcrun simctl list --json

When using xcodebuild or ie. Fastlane to build your project, it will use the default swift toolchain (the one from the currently selected Xcode).
You can check currently selected toolchain with this command:
$> swift --version
Apple Swift version 5.1.3 (swiftlang-1100.0.282.1 clang-1100.0.33.15)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin19.3.0
To use the alternative toolchain you can run xcrun and xcodebuild with a -toolchain flag like this:
xcodebuild -toolchain NAME
xcrun --toolchain NAME
where NAME is either an identifier or name of the toolchain, ie. xcodebuild --toolchain swift.
You could also export it to your current terminal session with a command:
$> export TOOLCHAINS=swift
$> export TOOLCHAINS=org.swift.51220191130a // /Library/Developer/Toolchains/swift-5.1.2-RELEASE.xctoolchain/Info.plist => CFBundleIdentifier
Run carthage with a specific swift toolchain:
carthage update --toolchain org.swift.402017072a
