no tar and gzip used unpacking root cache.

but have to run yum each time for the package specific depsolve and yum 
installs (ps axufww:)
---------------------------
\_ /usr/bin/python -tt /usr/sbin/mock -r testing-i386 --define rhel 5 
--define el5 1 --define dist .el5 --rebuild 
/home/robot/rpm/SRPMS/xyz-4.2.2-5280.el5.src.rpm
root     28319 49.5  0.8 255000 34292 pts/1    D    16:15   0:00 
   |                       \_ /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/yum --installroot 
/var/lib/mock/testing-i386/root/ install ccache rsync zip
---------------------------
and it much slower then the compile itself. it's very annoying when i 
try to rebuild only a dozen of packages most of the time.
eg in this output:
---------------------------
INFO: mock.py version 1.0.2 starting...

Config(testing-i386)

---------------------------
the time reach the "State Changed: build" is usually more then all other 
stuff before it.

of course not:-)
