Yes, but it's only once a week rather than a couple of times a day :-)

I'm fine with clobbering on "special" builds (such as Nightly and other
release builds).

I guess they help clean up old repositories from our non-try build slaves - however we could probably just clobber any directory unchanged for longer than N days instead.

The default clobber time is set at:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/build-central/source/buildbot-configs/mozilla/config.py#47
and for mozharness jobs:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/build-central/source/mozharness/mozharness/mozilla/purge.py#31

The clobberer script can be found at:
