Description

Since we don't change native code very often it would be interesting to see if we cache the iOS build folder between builds and how that affects the overall build time.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the repository's iOS build configuration and build pipeline to find where the iOS build folder is produced and whether it is currently discarded between builds. Establish a baseline build time, test caching experimentally, and consider the work done when the effect on overall build time is measured and documented.
