I can specify a cache directory with this code:


$cache = new Phalcon\Cache\Backend\File($frontCache, array(
     "cacheDir" => "../app/cache/"
));```

But, having lots of cache items, it will add lots of files to this directory. So, is it possible to make Phalcon automatically generate sub directories to store the cache files?

What I'm asking is similiar to what Zend 1 does with the "hashed_directory_level" parameter:

Yeah we need to look into that since sooner or later we will end up with the no more files allowed i.e. max files per folder.

Could you please open a NFR in Github so that we can address this?

Thanks!
