I would seconds Sam's suggestion here.  The shared memory caches are not 
really worth the trouble, and are actually surprisingly slow.  If it is 
absolutely necesary for the cache to be in memory then setup an 
in-memory filesystem (not sure how to do that on OSX).  However, it is 
often best to just let the OS handle the file system caching directly. 
The OS is very efficient at keeping the most often accessed files in 
memory for quick access.
