I would only enable it when packaging new SW, so that rebuilds are faster,
and also would do a final build without to be extra sure...

I used ccache quite a lot, and it saved far more time than it made me loose,
I seem to remember having build glitches sometimes, but nothing significant,
it is very conservative in its "caching" algos...

So I take this has not been used for guix build...
