Dave,

Thanks.  This is precisely what I was looking for.  I'll let you know 
how it turns out.

As this file system is likely to continue to increase in number of files 
at a fairly rapid rate, we're going to need a long term strategy.  I 
suspect it may be necessary in the near future to double or quadruple 
the memory to 32GB or 64GB, but the uncertainty in the formula makes me 
nervous.

For a situation like this, it would be ideal if we could specify an 
inode cache size.

Thanks,
Jesse
