Then again, if you have enough memory your OS could be doing that
automatically already. Or maybe if the Sieve plugin supports giving a
separate path to downloaded scripts, the destination could be in a
ramdisk or if you're using Linux: http://memcachefs.sourceforge.net/

Also I'm hopefully going to abstracting out filesystem accessing code in
Dovecot's index files and dbox code. Sieve could use this same FS API,
and you could implement whatever backend to actually perform the FS
access, like memcached..
