IMO: for a general purpose cache it is not appropriate to stop and try to write the entire response to the cache before serving anything.
This is existing mod_disk_cache behaviour, the patches reduces these problems. Maybe not in a perfect way, but in a way good enough to show really noticeable improvements.
Since improving this mess is a gradual process, you'll have to live with kludges until the optimal solution is there. The alternative would be to do a completely new perfectly designed cache, which given the time it has taken to get mod_cache/mod_disk_cache even near a usable state simply won't happen...
You can't both have "we want fixes in small incremental pieces" and "this thing sucks, make it perfect at once".
