Distributed local dev builds

Hi all,

I have several fairly high-spec machines on my network where I usually build GHC, and I was wondering if it was easy/trivial/possible to set up a distributed build where it farmed out some of the compute work to the other machines? I seem to need to build from scratch somewhat often when I switch branches I’m working on.

Is this going to be the aim of distributed shake, which hadrian is based on?

Thanks!
Julian
