Right now DS saves everything in one big cache.

Next time we go to load it, the first thing we try to load is for reportCacheAge, which tries to load all the cache, just to get a small piece of it.

The next time we go to load cache, it's fast because it's all been put into memory. This makes our cache load very front heavy. We could split it up, and possibly get some noticeable startup gains. Make these files in the profile, in a directory, instead of 1 file for everything.

I suggest we break our cache up into logical blocks, cache ages in one block, spocs in another, layout in another, and feeds in another. I considered putting feeds into a cache file for each feed, but not sure, feels like overkill.
