Dunno. There're only few apps (PIE, Netfront, SimpleSMS etc.) that do mass writing to the cache directory/database file. Therefore, most 3rd-party apps will work OK in WM5, at least speed-wise, without touching them.
I don't know whether the developers of WM5 have gone for the less resource-friendly, but certainly more compatible 'transparent ' mode, or, do they enforce the programmer to do some work instead (for example, instead of creating one file for each Web page resource (GIF's, JPG's, JavaScript files, CSS files and the main HTML page) - file creation speed sucks even more in the File Store than file writing speed - , concatenate their contents to just one file.) Both are possible.
