My understanding (from observing the behaviour, I don't know the code) is
that "Index unused headers" will index all the unused headers once, when
the project is created. This takes a long times, yes. But "Index source
and header files opened in editor" reindexes a file every time it's opened
in the editor, so it's a constant performance drain.

This is incorrect. Each file is indexed only once in both cases.
