File::Cache is a better choice than IPC::Cache for most things. In this
case, you can free yourself from worrying about managing memory between
mod_perl and your cache by using File::Cache and letting the OS handle
keeping commonly used pages in RAM. It wil buffer the frequently used
files and page out unused mod_perl code. Much simpler.
