I built my Athlon 3500+ system a couple of years back for about USD800
plus reuse of some existing peripherals. You can now buy a prebuilt 3800
+ system from Lenovo (Thinkcenter A61) for under USD600, including Vista
Business.

I have two filters that are both export-only. One is trivially small and
the other is quite large, but each is implemented as a single XML file.
Both export to XML. I guess I haven't run into the Quickstarter cache
issue because I use a single XSL file for each filter. I used the single
file approach because it makes it easier to package the filter using a
jar file that folks can install. 

I guess if the packaging problem is ever addressed, then the caching
issue needs to be addressed at the same time. Meantime, I will have my
filename issue on Linux.
