Comment (by janthiel):

 @ianmjones Thanks for getting back to this so quickly :-)

 From what you describe, this change will only affect you in all the
 positive ways it should. The call to {{{get_dirsize}}} will not change in
 any way. But the caching under the hood of it will be much more scalable
 for growing upload folders. So as long as you don't handle the
 {{{dirsize_cache}}} by yourself, everything will continue without any
 change required on your end.

 Performancewise: On "new" or small sites you will most probably not notice
 anything at all. But for larger ones or those running on NFS you should
 notice the increased performance as well.
