Is it possible to store the cache for the `sync`, `debug`, and `run` modes separately? Currently, after `sync`, I can only proceed to `debug`, but not to `run`, otherwise it will start the compilation from the beginning, which will take a lot of time.

Looks similar to #4113

It seems so, but when we enable it, debugging breakpoints stop working.

@kekxv Hi, thanks for reaching out with this issue. You are right, the registry key is pretty useless as far I understand the situation here. However, we are aware of the underlying issue and I'll look into this as soon as I find some time.

[ujohnny]

The key issue here is that plugin implicitly adds bazel flags that requires recompilation of whole project when debug action is performed, see https://github.com/bazelbuild/intellij/blob/1cfaf569db0e3f044edc74c0469a3418908b9040/clwb/src/com/google/idea/blaze/clwb/run/BlazeCidrRunConfigurationRunner.java#L102. Technically this should be addressed on a level of project view file, ie user "enables" native debugging in project view file like nativeDebuggingEnabled: true and then sync & run is also performed with -c dbg.
