     33If you want to limit how much disk space ccache may use, you can configure the maximum with `ccache_size`.

     37When building ports, cache files are stored in a directory inside the MacPorts prefix, which is at `/opt/local/var/macports/build/.ccache` by default. Additionally, there is also a ~/.ccache directory in your home, which is used if you run manual builds with ccache outside of MacPorts.

     39To see some statistics how useful ccache is for your ports and how much disk space it takes, use
    3640{{{
    37 $ ccache -s

    40 If you believe ccache takes up too much disk space for you, there is the possibility to set a maximum by using something like
    41 {{{
    42 $ ccache -M 2G

    46 If you want to free some space, do a cleanup with
    47 {{{
    48 $ ccache -c
     41$ CCACHE_DIR=/opt/local/var/macports/build/.ccache ccache -s
    4942}}}
