/home/worker/workspace in toolchain taskcluster tasks isn't a cache. That means it is an AUFS volume which means I/O is horrible (including reads) and performance suffers (bug 1291940).

All the heavy lifting in tasks should be done from a cache volume for performance reasons.

Also, keep in mind permissions and cache poisoning issues with caches. It is probably best to use `run-task` to have it manage the cache directory, since it will chown files before it drops permissions to the worker user.
