Hello all, I believe ccache is an incredibly useful application (which is why I'm introducing it at my work place). Besides the great performance improvements for builds, I particularly like this feature mentioned on the front page:

I know, there may be a few exceptions, but those should be kept to a minimum. Performance is an important aspect, but it seems better to me to prefer the safe option (right now, that's preprocessing made, perhaps in the future it can be a 'safe direct mode'), rather than the fast option. Application defaults (this is my personal opinion of course) benefit from being safe. It's always possible for users to go with a more advanced option if they do feel confident.
