Because it's all temporary data?

I do the same.  On my machines the tah installation is mounted over
NFS and the working folder is on local /tmp. This way all client
instances use the same installation bot don't interfere with each
others data.  And since rendering can be I/O demanding it won't be
bogged down by the network.  They then upload to a common directory on
the NFS share.  Works pretty well.
