I wonder if the kernel's page cache already performs an approximation of this optimization transparently? Have you benchmarked this compared to the filesystem backend?

Hi, I am unable to reproduce this with the bazel-remote build and bazel 5.2.0 - I'm able to populate the cache, then bazel clean and building again gives cache hits....

Are you able to reproduce this issue when building `//:bazel-remote` in this repository? https://bazel.build/docs/remote-caching-debug suggests checking for warnings in the build logs, possibly with `--verbose_failures` to get more info. And...

Closing for now due to lack of feedback.

@ob: the remaining part of this feels to me like something that might be better handled by launchd (on mac) / systemd (on linux). I played around a bit with...

It's fairly easy to install the launchd config, it doesn't require root access and could be done by your bazel-wrapper. IIRC it works fine if you upgrade the bazel-remote binary...

https://www.launchd.info was the best reference I found, IIRC. I modified the example there for bazel-remote, and was able to load and start/stop it without sudo.
