Title:
  Metadata cache time should be configurable

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The nova metadata request handler uses an in-memory cache of 15
  seconds. Under very heavy usage of the metadata service, this can
  drastically limit the cache hit rate, since it expires so quickly.

  Adding the ability to control the cache timeout has, in our tests,
  increased the average cache hit rate from around 20% to 80% or better
  with approximately a thousand metadata calls per minute.
