Hi,

Over in #layout people were ranting about how much of a pain it was to
set up icecc on MacOS. I pointed out that sccache in theory does support
distributed compilation[1] and in theory also supports MacOS clients.

Does anybody know to what extent is it in a usable state? Can it replace
icecc? I'm a Linux user, and icecc works pretty well, but if sccache
supports Rust as well that's a huge plus.

Are people encouraged to try it out? Or only experimentally? Or should
we wait?

I know Ted encouraged me to try it in Berlin, and I still have to do
that (d'oh :/). So given that I suspect the answer is "it's worth trying
out and report bugs". But worth knowing if it's more generally usable or
mostly experimental.

Thanks,

 -- Emilio
