Perhaps make it configurable because on Linux there already is a dcache right in the kernel which is likely to be faster than anything we can do.
On linux you still have to make all those stat calls (they just return fast). A hashlookup inside TSRM will almost certainly return much faster.
As far as I know, Linux is the only OS with such a kernel-level cache.
Isn't solaris' dnlc similar in function to linux's dcache?
