NSCache is slow
Really slow according to Shark:
Apparently inserting an object into NSCache is 50x slower than a regular NSMutableDictionary! It’s possible Shark might not be reporting the figures accurately.
My current work-around is to store up additions to the NSCache so that they can be inserted at a later time, when processing power is at less of a premium. Yes, shoot me. I’ve subclassed NSCache.

I’ve no idea why it’s taken me so long to sort this one out. Especially when it’s so simple.
#! /bin/sh
#
# Opens the current file in TextMate
mate "%%%{PBXFilePath}%%%"Paste into a new user script (Scripts -> Edit User Scripts…) and set the Input, Directory and Output options to 'No Input', 'Selection', and 'Discard Output' respectively and choose a useful key combination.

It’s strange how long we will struggle to work around a sub-optimal workflow, even when a fix might be disproportionately easy.
