distcc on a Mac
Distribute C/C++ compiles across machines · Build & Compile
distcc spreads C/C++ compilation across a farm of machines to cut build times. Install with Homebrew on each host; run distccd on the helpers (default TCP 3632) and point the compiler via CC='distcc gcc'. Often paired with ccache.
