About:
sccache acts as a compiler wrapper that caches compilation results to avoid redundant work. It supports local disk caching and can distribute compilation across remote machines. This significantly speeds up rebuilds and continuous integration pipelines.
Key Features:
  • Local and remote caching (S3, Azure, etc.)
  • Distributed compilation support
  • Drop-in replacement for ccache
  • Supports multiple compilers (GCC, Clang, MSVC)
Use Cases:
  • Accelerating local development rebuilds
  • Reducing CI/CD build times
  • Speeding up large-scale codebase compilation
Alternatives:
  • ccache – ccache is simpler and only supports local disk caching, while sccache adds remote storage and distributed compilation.
