            Bug ID: 167596
           Summary: [GTK][EFL] Avoid using a thin directory to create the
                    built product on the archive-built-product step.
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests

When the build-only GTK+ bots create the built product for uploading to the test bots they do:

 * Remove WebKitBuild/Configuration/thin directory
 * Create WebKitBuild/Configuration/thin directory again
 * Copy the needed directories from WebKitBuild/Configuration/ to WebKitBuild/Configuration/thin/
 * Remove the from WebKitBuild/Configuration/thin all *.o files
 * Invoke the zip program to make an archive of WebKitBuild/Configuration/thin/* 

I think this can be optimized with

 * Just invoke the zip program with the right arguments on WebKitBuild/Configuration/

This will not only speed up the built-product step, but will also reduce the disk space requirements. On the GTK+ debug build-only bot this thin directory requires 16GB of disk space.
