From the ccache homepage (http://ccache.samba.org/): Performance Here are some results for compiling Samba on my Linux laptop. I have also included the results of using Erik's compilercache program (version 1.0.10) for comparison. ccache compilercache normal 13m 4s 13m 4s uncached 13m 15s 15m 41s cached 2m 45s 4m 26s > I'd think if it was going to be that effective, it would have seen > it on the 2nd build, not the 4th. I don't know enough about ccache or your setup to know why you didn't see an improvement from the 2nd time on. If you're changing config options between each build that would likely change some of the resulting compiled objects and then they wouldn't match the cache. > ccache-2.4-7.fc6 is installed though. If it's installed, then it will account for some significant amount of time savings. -- Todd OpenPGP -> KeyID: 0xBEAF0CE3 | URL: www.pobox.com/~tmz/pgp ====================================================================== Eat drink and be merry, for tomorrow they may make it illegal.
