The distribution of files in the directories is irrelevant to
whether you get cache hits.

Having "all of the cache files in the first cache directory" is to be
expected for the first 256 files or so.

There is some other reason that you get no cache hits. For example,
if you keep pressing the RELOAD button on your browser you would
never get a cache hit.
