Having the same problem, pulling my hair out to find a solution but and finally found one; It is to downgrade.

From 2mins+ of compiling to 25s.

Here's How:

1. You need to install these (if your using OSX):

   http://guides.rubygems.org/ssl-certificate-update/#installing-using-update-packages

2. Install Bundle

   gem install bundle

3. Make a Gemfile in your root folder, name it "Gemfile"

# frozen_string_literal: true
source "https://rubygems.org"

# gem "rails"
gem 'sass', "3.2.9"
gem 'sass-globbing', ">= 1.1.0"
gem 'compass', "0.12.2"
gem 'breakpoint',  "2.0.5"
gem 'singularitygs', "< 2.0.0"
gem 'bootstrap-sass'

4. Install GemFile and update it

   bundle install && bundle update

5. Then to run compass with bundle

   time bundle exec compass compile

I'm keeping my versions like these for a while, until they fix the performance issues. Hope it helps!
