yup,, its all about how least the amount of time you spend on the target.
In the navy, to avoid this problem we would add a gator clip to one side of the joining parts to act as a heat sync.
clip goes on the "new" component side.
using paste or liquid flux reduced your time you spend on the object by nearly 75%,, some people dont know this because they believe thier solder has flux in it already so why bother. using just a tiny dot of paste flux atop the new joint will amaze you has much less time you actually spend melting down things.
