This is a bigger problem than I thought, because apparently when you access the menu, AccountService? stat's every single homedir. On a cluster machine, this results in pyhesiodfs trying to attach ~1400 user lockers in the span of 1 second. This works exactly as well as you think it does.

This is not #1266, as I just repro'd #1266 on a machine with exactly one entry in the cache.
