While bcache is a great technology, this is not what I need here. On this box NVMe will be the only storage and / will be placed there. All other data will be NFS-accessible over 1 Gbps link. I have thoughts about caching NFS using filescached, but limited durability of the drive (400 TBW warranty for 512 GB size) restrains me here. Probably I'll use it for caching only in exceptional cases (e.g. slow remote mounts like AFS), but with 64 GB RAM I doubt I'll need additional NVMe-based caching, at least for now, with time this may change of course.
