In software development, ccache is a tool which caches the output of C/C++ compilation so that the next time, the same compilation can be omitted. This can greatly speed up compiling time. The program counts on the fact that identical preprocessed source code compiled using the identical compiler settings results in identical output being generated.

Released under the GNU General Public License, ccache is free software.
