This is kind of related to bug 1373460, but it feels like that bug is broader. I'm merely concerned that, most notably, PGO and ASAN builds are not using sccache. For PGO, while it didn't matter in the past, because sccache doesn't do anything (although, actually, it probably caches the first pass), it would make a bigger difference now that a lot of rust code is built that can be cached (and is not PGOed anyways).
Note this patch queue leaves out two problems with PGO builds: - Stats are wrong on Windows builds because the sccache server shuts down during xul.dll linking -> we'll need https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/pull/155 - Stats are doubly wrong because preflight/postflight run before and after each build pass, which means we're shutting down the sccache server between the two passes. The --show-stats is also run at the end of both passes. I'm leaving this for a followup.

My plan was to just make the sccache server persist stats to disk.

Considering these shortcomings are not limited to these builds, I'm inclined to ignore them. Bug 1384436 should also make things better.

> Bug 1384436 should also make things better. bwarf, if made things worse. Ted, I'm going to address the things raised in https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/issues/117 and will probably address https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/issues/163 at the same time.
Possibly related to this recent change?
