#### A fast C/C++ compiler cache

ccache is a compiler cache. It [speeds up recompilation][1]
by caching previous compilations and detecting when the same
compilation is being done again. Supported languages are C, C++,
Objective-C and Objective-C++.

**Features**

* Keeps statistics on hits/misses.
* Automatic cache size management.
* Can cache compilations that generate warnings.
* Easy installation.
* Low overhead.
* Optionally uses hard links where possible to avoid copies.

**NOTE**

This is not an official distribution of ccache, refer the [issue tracker][2]
regarding to any issues regarding the use of this snap.
