I ran a quick test with ccache and ./configure. Using bogofilter's |
| 12 |
configure script (because it was available): |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
before installing ccache: |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
3 runs of ./configure averaged 6.07s |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
... installed ccache ... |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
next run took 6.5 sec (slower than before) |
| 21 |
next 3 runs averaged 4.96s (18.4% better than before) |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
conclusion: ccache _does_ help ./configure |
