I don't think this would be any more than a one-time win until the disk

would still end up cleaning up roughly one objdir to clean up enough
space to run.
Why can't you move it, then spawn a background thread to remove it at
minimum priority? IIUC, Vista and later support I/O prioritization,
Brian Bondy just added I/O prioritization to our code that removes
corrupt HTTP caches, in bug 773518, in case that code helps.
