Comment:

 Hi,

 (ccing me)

 I am against shipping ccache in Sage (following comment:11). On the other
 hand, if some OS fails to have it then why not doing the same as gcc? I
 have no strong opinion about this as I think that everybody should use a
 Unix/GNU distribution (with gcc+ccache available).

 Nevertheless, it would be fantastic to document the usage of ccache
  - for compiling '''only''' sage source code
  - for compiling sage source code and third-party softwares
 and I see two places where this might be important
  - the Developer guide
  - the README

 I started using ccache today (thanks to Robert Bradshaw). The only thing I
 did is
 {{{
  $ export PATH=PATH_TO_CCACHE:$PATH
  $ sage -b
 }}}
 Is that the right way to use it? (it seems so as my cache is much bigger
 now).

 Tell me if I can help for something on that ticket.

 Best
 Vincent
