Description
This may be the continuation of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-analyzer/issues/6136.
I've tried rebuilding rust-analyzer from scratch and setting up PKG_CONFIG_PATH explicitly in rust-analyzer.server.extraEnv. Unfortunately, the issue persists. The openssl-sys package is getting rebuilt each time analyzer invokes cargo check.
rust-analyzer version: 0.0.0 (75b22326d 2022-07-03) (built on the latest release branch)
rustc version: 1.61.0-nightly (52b34550a 2022-03-15)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the macOS issue with rust-analyzer invoking cargo check, focusing on whether openssl-sys is rebuilt each time. Review the referenced issue #6136 and the reported rust-analyzer and Cargo behavior; done means identifying the cache invalidation cause and confirming that repeated checks reuse the Cargo build cache.
