cached fs for embedded devices

Hi!

I was thinking that would be very nice if it is possible to make a new
filesystem based on what was read on the last boot.

The solution I'm looking for is a kernel module that generates a
mountable compressed fs file that contains the data that was read on
the last boot. Not all files that were opened but only parts of the
files that were read.

Then I can store that mountable file in flash memory and then use as
root fs for my embedded device.

If there is missing files or missing part of files, the data could be
downloaded from a server.

Cachefs does sort of this... Are there other options?

Is this good idea?

Thanks!
