what you are missing is that Ted is saying that unless you are using xattrs, the
mbcache should not show up at all.
The fact that you are using SElinux, and SELinux sets the xattrs is what makes
this show up on your system, but other people who don't use SELinux (and so
don't have any xattrs set) don't see the same bottleneck.
