Have you considered not using a cache per browser (turn off the on-disk caching in each browser), but using a common proxy for your whole LAN? You'll reduce your internet bandwidth usage, and it's possible that it might be more efficient than what you've noticed with NFSing the local caches. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
