As far as I can see the workspace.build() call is not asynchronous,
isn't the problem perhaps that you are doing a CLEAN_BUILD. This
normally only clears the build state for a project, but if you happen to
have 'Build Automatically' enabled it probably does trigger a build that
appears to be asynchronous.
