I am not against doing it but AFAIR the LRU file operations is (1) not
frequent; (2) the cost is only several CPU circles if we do not run out of
fds; (3) the LRU lseek/close/open big cost is still not avoidable when we
really run out of fds. So this optimization may be not needed. Or do you
have some numbers to show that's a bottleneck for some kind of applications?
