I didn't realize brew put the links in libexec. I did it manually like in this tutorial:

https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/accelerating-compilation-part-1-ccache

This tutorial discusses the size of the cache. I made mine too small when I first set it up.

I like Jed's mpi method as the things I want cached the most are the parallel stuff -- I don't want to cache the serial externalbuilds.

I have ccache setup automatically on my linux box.

balay@sb /home/balay
$ which gcc
/usr/lib64/ccache/gcc

i.e the easiest thing to do is update PATH. For ex on OSX [where its not 
automatically setup] - I have it installed via brew and:

export PATH=/usr/local/opt/ccache/libexec:$PATH

I'm shamefully not using ccache. How do I do it? Is it as simple as ./configure 
--with-cc="ccache gcc" --with-cxx="ccache g++"? Works on OS X and various 
Linuxes? Any known issue with external packages or otherwise?
