-NOTES ON SETTING UP CCACHE
-
-Using ccache can save a lot of time when building packages,
-and this is not limited to Qt5. Ccache is installed by
-default on stock Slackware.
-
-ccache(1) has a lot of useful info on using ccache, however
-I don't recommend using its method of symlinking. Instead I
-recommend the following way:
-
-mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
-ln -s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/cc
-ln -s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/c++
-ln -s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/gcc
-ln -s /usr/bin/ccache /usr/local/bin/g++
-
-Doing it this way rather than copying the ccache binary as
-the man page suggests will ensure that the ccache used is
-updated whenever the ccache package is.
-
-The cache is created in the home directory of the user using
-it, and since slackbuilds are run by root that will be in
-/root/.ccache, therefore ensure that you have enough free
-space on the root file system for it. It is possible to put
-the cache directory elsewhere though. See the man page for
-info. But it would probably be fastest when on the same
-file system as the build directory.
-
-It's also possible to host the cache on a shared NFS
-directory, but be sure to test the speed before committing
-to that. The man page has some notes on this.
-
-Since Qt5 can take a lot of build space I recommend a max
-cache size of AT LEAST 6 GB. If you intend to use it all
-the time then use as much as you can. The default size is
-5 GB. I use 20 GB on my main build box, but use 7 GB on
-workstations and servers.
-
-Handy commands:
-
-ccache -s: To show some statistics.
-ccache -M <N>: To set the max cache size to N.
-
-(use G for GB with -M.)
