FWIW, I'd done a quick and dirty stats collector right now - added hit count
into proc_dir_entry + /proc/counts walking the pde tree and dumping the
counts. Left it running in practically idle kvm testbox, after boot it
shows
kmsg => 2
kcore => 4
version => 4
uptime => 3
stat => 38
meminfo => 22
loadavg => 2
devices => 4
consoles => 4
cmdline => 109
filesystems => 118
swaps => 8
modules => 2
misc => 1
acpi => 6
fb => 1
counts => 14
sys => 1
bus => 1
fs => 1
net => 18
mounts => 10
self => 123

IOW, counts on this one are very low so far. OTOH, that kvm image is
practically idle, doesn't have desktop shite on it, etc. This really
ought to be checked on something busy... The first impression is that
the stuff outside of /proc/<pid> and /proc/sys isn't hot enough to care
about any cache retention...
