To be a bit more precise, these are the variables to work with:

SSTATE_DIR ?= "${TOPDIR}/sstate-cache"
SSTATE_MIRRORS ?= "\
file://.* http://someserver.tld/share/sstate/ \n \
file://.* file:///some/local/dir/sstate/"

Does every clone (which might be translated at the same time) has to 
have its own local SSTATE_DIR?
Or is it ok to point every clone to one single directory, like: 
SSTATE_DIR ?= "${HOME}/sstate-cache"?
Or should I use SSTATE_MIRRORS for that purpose?

Thanks!
