ccache is a compiler cache. It acts as a caching pre-processor to C/C++ compilers, using the -E compiler switch and a hash to detect when a compilation can be satisfied from cache. This often results in a 5 to 10 times speedup in common compilations.
Features
- keeps statistics on hits/misses
- automatic cache size management
- can cache compiles that generate warnings
- easy installation
- very low overhead
- uses hard links where possible to avoid copies
