Ccache is installed by -default on stock Slackware. - -ccache(1) has a lot of useful info on using ccache, however -I don't recommend using its method of symlinking.

It is possible to put -the cache directory elsewhere though. See the man page for -info. But it would probably be fastest when on the same -file system as the build directory. - -It's also possible to host the cache on a shared NFS -directory, but be sure to test the speed before committing -to that. The man page has some notes on this. - -Since Qt5 can take a lot of build space I recommend a max -cache size of AT LEAST 6 GB. If you intend to use it all -the time then use as much as you can.
