Which is why Unix boxes use all unallocated memory for buffers/cache. 
Some files are accessed a zillion times... and why nscd rocks so much
on servers with a ton of users... getpwent() and friends are called a
ton of times and an extra cache layer helps.

(Though, alas, nscd coredumps a bunch on my linux boxes... so I just
skip it... though I do use db files for passwd and shadow which speeds
things up.)
