The object tree should be readonly while installing. Mounting it readonly is too hard to configure in general, but making it immutable is efficient enough at least for testing: "chflags -R schg /usr/obj/; sync; chflags -R noschg /usr/obj/" starting with a cold disk cache takes about 0.75 of makeworld time here (12 seconds for schg including warming the cache, 3.5 seconds for noschg (all metadata stays cached), and 2000 seconds for makeworld).
