After cleaning the project the next Run seems to compile all the source code even those that you aren't probably going to use. It is possible to have OE compile on the fly?
On the main ide menu, unselect project->build automatically to turn off the builder.
Then from the preferences under window->preferences->run/debug->launching turn off the option to "build before launching" so the build won't run before running a program.

You can also turn off the save of r-code from project->preferences->build. This still runs the builder, but the r-code won't be generated.
NOTE that neither of these is recommended. OEA requires r-code for debugging and content assistance. If you turn off the builder you will greatly reduce the functionality of both of these features.
I'm just looking for a way to have OE compile on demand.
Is something like Prefs > OEA > Editor > Build > Compile On Save If Required what you're looking for?

It's more like compile only if needed. My project includes quite a few linked directories to our production code location which can have tons of files. Currently it will try to recompile the full project during launch (specially if you Clean the project). I would like it to not to do that but instead compile only the source code that I'm going to run into while running the code. It can do the out-of-date or r-code presence checks at that time.
