Current evaluation

Maintainer asks about mounting /var/cache in overlay to prevent cached files from being included in images and requests suggestions for caching improvements.

Suggested action: needs triage

Reason: This is a design question from a maintainer about caching strategy with no labels, no assignee, and no maintainer discussion yet. The issue is fresh (5 days old) and asks for input on architectural decisions around overlay caching, so it needs triage to determine if it should become a feature request, discussion, or be addressed differently.

Issue body

Should we be mounting `/var/cache` in the overlay directory to somewhere local on the machine so cached files won't make it to the image but can be used for future packing runs? What other ways can we improve caching?
