sccache includes support for caching Rust compilation. This includes many caveats, and is primarily focused on caching rustc invocations as produced by cargo. A (possibly-incomplete) list follows:
--emitis required.--crate-nameis required.- Only
link,metadataanddep-infoare supported as--emitvalues, andlinkmust be present. --out-diris required.-o fileis not supported.- Compilation from stdin is not supported, a source file must be provided.
- Values from
env!require Rust >= 1.46 to be tracked in caching. - Procedural macros that read files from the filesystem may not be cached properly
If you are using Rust 1.18 or later, you can ask cargo to wrap all compilation with sccache by setting RUSTC_WRAPPER=sccache in your build environment.
