turning on the 'ccache' flag in the FEATURES variable (in make.conf, or in 
your environment) is an excellent way to reduce the time taken for 
recompiling massive things like qt when you only need a small change - most 
of the code compiled will be exactly the same as it was before and in this 
case ccache provides amazing improvements

unfortunately some apps don't get much improvement with ccache (erm I'm no C 
coder but I think it's something to do with compiling and linking at the same 
time). It seems that the myth suite falls into this category as it doesn't 
appear to compile faster the second time round.
