    So this is like a cache? Reminded me of <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;turborepo.dev" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;turborepo.dev for TS, is it a similar concept?

      It&#x27;s deeper pipelining of the build units (similar to how CPU does pipelining). Rust has had pipelined builds for a while, but this extends it further.
