Ccache – a fast C/C++ compiler cache
I wrote a little bit about this a couple of years ago: https://blog.williammanley.net/2020/05/25/unlock-software-fr...
gittup[1] implements part of this idea, but without the distributed bit. bazel[2] implements the distributed bit (minus trust), but not the distro bit. What's really lacking is momentum around the idea to get a sufficient number of people behind it.

Ccache – a fast C/C++ compiler cache
Many years ago there was confcache¹, that for a time was integrated in to portage via a FEATURES flag for Gentoo users. It wasn't particularly useful in the general case, and never really worked that well in practice. I don't recall the idea really taking off anywhere else, and I can't remember when it finally disappeared in Gentoo either(but it was a looooong time ago).
¹ The only source I've found right now is https://github.com/fxttr/confcache
What are some alternatives?
poudriere - Port/Package build and test system
icecream - Distributed compiler with a central scheduler to share build load
sccache - Sccache is a ccache-like tool. It is used as a compiler wrapper and avoids compilation when possible. Sccache has the capability to utilize caching in remote storage environments, including various cloud storage options, or alternatively, in local storage.
ZQuestClassic - ZQuest Classic is a game engine for creating games similar to the original NES Zelda
ccache - ccache – a fast compiler cache
Bazel - a fast, scalable, multi-language and extensible build system
