I guess you mean changing the OS image so there's a $CCACHE.
That sounds fine...

It's using 150MB for an initial compilation, and maxsize will need to be
20% larger for it to not evict its cache before it can be used.
The other ccaches (except for mingw) seem to be several times larger
than what's needed for a single compilation, which makes sense to cache
across multiple branches (or even commits in a single branch), and for
cfbot.

I don't know -- a pipe alone seems more direct than a
subshell+conditional+pipe written in cmd.exe, whose syntax is not well
known here.
Maybe you're suggesting to write
sh -c "(ninja -C build && touch success) | tee build.txt ; cat ./success"
But that's another layer of complexity .. for what ?

Maybe it should run on the local macs where I think you can control
that.

cfbot now exposes it, so it'd be trivial for that case (although there
was no response here to my inquiries about that). I'll revisit this in
the future, once other patches have progressed.
