     - ccache now has a ``direct mode'' where it computes a hash of the source
       code (including all included files) and compiler arguments without
       running the preprocessor. By not running the preprocessor, CPU usage is
-      reduced; the speed is about 1-5 times that of ccache running in
-      traditional mode. The relative speedup will be higher when I/O is fast

     - Support has been added for rewriting absolute paths to relative paths
       when hashing, in order to increase cache hit rate when building the same
