I don't know compilers, but doesn't the IR level still distinguish between signed and unsigned for example, even though the generated machine code will be the same? Anyway that's what I had in mind with the caching of CTFE as well. To create a hash over the IR (or AST?) of a function (or anything else) and store the hash and the serialized IR into a file next to the object files. -- Marco
