Well, the thing is, it could get that _without_ any cache too.

The problem really isn't that we couldn't make things faster, the problem 
is that at least for _me_ the thing is fast enough.

If somebody is interested in making the "lots of filename changes" case go 
fast, I'd be more than happy to walk them through what they'd need to 
change. I'm just not horribly motivated to do it myself. Hint, hint.
