It is, yeah, though you have to turn it on. I'm not actually sure why it's off by default.

It’s off by default as it can make builds slower (regardless of platform)—you should test this if you care. There also are (or were) some bugs on macOS that would cause corruption.
That seems like the wrong default. Most people do very little building on their desktops; they get all their software from the cache.
