<h4>Building with ccache</h4>
- <p>A simple way to radically speed up compilation of native code
- (typically hotspot and native libraries in JDK) is to install
- ccache. This will cache and reuse prior compilation results, if the
- source code is unchanged. However, ccache versions prior to 3.1.4
- does not work correctly with the precompiled headers used in
- OpenJDK. So if your platform supports ccache at 3.1.4 or later, we
- highly recommend installing it. This is currently only supported on
- linux.</p>
+ <p>The OpenJDK build supports building with ccache
+ when using gcc or clang. Using ccache can
+ radically speed up compilation of native code if
+ you often rebuild the same sources. Your milage
+ may vary however so we recommend evaluating it for
+ yourself. To enable it, make sure it's on the path
+ and configure with <code>--enable-ccache</code>.</p>
