So, not clean if you remove the package. But not a huge deal either. I
guess I prefer to have all packages own the directory ;-)

No metrics. But I wouldn't say it's 20% faster -- probably closer to 5%,
(but it's actually hard to know since I don't have a close control on
the build service ;-)). It just enables us to build more packages in
parellel earlier.
