I lied a bit here: in some cases, for example where a particular query would involve going through several (up to a couple of thousand) files and subdirectories to compose, i provide a single file that gives me that information much faster and in only a fraction of the 9p queries it would normally would. it's by no means a general solution to the speed problem, but it does get me the data 30-50 times faster... but i digress...
