Hello, I am just learning the bitcoin codes of version bitcoin-0.20. So I compiled the codes for a very long time to generate the bitcoind and so on. After a period of learning , I want to modify some codes in order to verify some ideas. By the way , I run the bitcoin on my WSL of the windows10 . However, I found the makefile period is a very long time despite I only modify one sentence codes. Hence, would you please tell me how to quicken the make process after modifing the bitcoin codes? Thank you very much.

Install and use ccache. Pass -jX to make. Where X is the number of threads you want to use.

sudo apt install ccache, then re-configure and make again.
