Hi,
I am having the same problem with Zend_Cache_Backend_File.
I have less cache files than Ralf but when the cache is cleaned with 
CLEANING_MODE_MATCHING_TAG
it takes a long time, more than 20 seg.

I was reading this thread and I would not like to change to
Zend_Cache_Backend_SQLite.
Does anybody know what happen?,
Why does it take a long time?

If this performance is normal, I suppose that the Zend_Cache_Backend_File is
unusable.

Greeting.
Thanks.
Cristina.
