I set up ccache and let Qt5 build. It took 4h 55min on my Ryzen7 2700
desktop with 32G RAM. That's a lot of time for a UI widget library, but it
tries to do everything, everywhere, for everybody.

Reading the ccache man page I think I understand that it provided no
speed-up because it needed a full build to cache for future upgrades.

My thanks to all who commented and increases my understanding.

Stay well, all,
