Yes! Part of the build project work that I regularly email this list[1] we have it on our roadmap to have the same distributed cache that we use in automation available for engineers who are working on C++ code. We have completed our rewrite and will be putting the initial work through try over the next fortnight to make sure we havent regressed anything. After that we will be working towards making it available to engineers before the end of Q3 (at least on one platform).
