Actually IIRC FileSet and DirSet are (by virtue of
their common parent class) implemented such that each
use re-scans the filesystem, except in the rare event
that the DirectoryScanner is requested concurrently
from separate threads. It would probably be pretty
easy to concoct a "frozen" ResourceCollection, but as
a workaround wrapping the fileset in a <union> and
forcing an evaluation with e.g. <pathconvert> or
<resourcecount>, then relying on its cache=true
default setting to cache those results...
