Completely agree. Though there is one key point: if there is a "bottle
neck" (a target takes long time, and all other targets cannot start
while this one is not done), any improvement in this particular target
will help.  So, it seems to make sense to try to use file caching to 
minimze the time lost in "bottlenecks".
