It's pretty difficult to find comprehensive benchmark results,
especially for niche products such as CacheCade.

Enhance-IO is $295 per Linux server per year.  Last I saw, Cleancache
isn't fully supported by XFS yet in a stable vanilla release.  AFAIK
bcache isn't fully baked yet.  Coupled with the fact that Mike seems to
be limited to the CentOS ecosystem, I figured CacheCade was his best
option at this time.  It's been around a couple of years, works,
verified decent performance, and no additional kernel software is
required.  And it's relatively easy to configure.
