Not exactly a raw filesystem but on the Squid developers list some people
from Australia have mentioned that they are working on SquidFS which stores
many objects in a small number of big file (something like the cyclic news
file systems INN and Diablo use). This avoids the open() call for each
object.
I have no idea about the current status of it.
