Is there any current reason why dircache isn't enabled by default? I have at the back of my mind that it is because there used to be some bugs there, but is this still true? IIRC, pamaury fixed some recently. Anyone know the status there, as IMO it'd be nice to turn it on by default if possible?

Try initializing dircache with a ridiculously large number of tiny files (the High Voltage SID Collection is a good test case, IIRC) and see if it succeeds. I seem to remember that being one of the major problems - that it didn't fail particularly gracefully, re-attempting to initialize every boot but never succeeding.
