distcc

distcc is a super handy program that helps you distribute builds of C, C++, Objective C, or Objective C++ code across several machines on your network. It’s designed to make building your code faster and easier! Whether you're working on a big project or just trying to speed things up, distcc can really help out. The best part? It should always give you the same results as if you were doing a local build. Plus, it’s simple to install and use.

Why Use distcc?

One of the coolest things about distcc is that it doesn’t need all your machines to share the same filesystem or even have their clocks synced up. You also don’t have to worry about having the same libraries or header files installed on every machine. It’s pretty flexible!

Compatibility with Different Systems

Your machines can have different processors or operating systems, and as long as you have cross-compilers set up, you’re good to go! This means you can mix and match different setups without any hassle.

New Features in This Release

What’s New? This release introduces an exciting feature called distcc-pump mode. With this new pump mode, distcc can now distribute preprocessing too—not just compilation. What does this mean for you? Well, it means that this version can be up to three times faster than earlier versions! How awesome is that?

Bugs Fixed & Improvements

This update also includes a bunch of other new features and bug fixes that improve overall performance and reliability. So if you're looking for speed and efficiency in your builds, definitely check out the latest version!
