Hmm, I wouldn't have expected it to be quite that large, but I guess it 
depends what you're doing with it, and I'd imagine given the number of builds 
you run you probably stress it more than most (which is good :). In the end 
500M is just a drop in the bucket compared to the rest of TMPDIR...

Good advice :) It's also worth noting it will noticeably increase the 
do_rootfs time (especially for RPM) and probably do_package as well.

Cheers,
Paul
