A few "solutions" exist:

Use Op instead - of course there is no Op exporter from sources or Linux client -- but these could be rectified with work.

If used v9fs run with cache=loose or cache=fscache both of which enables caching meta-data.

Convince the Linux community to fix ls - I think the kernel supports Plan 9 style dirread now (there were some bug reports against v9fs suggesting a plan 9 style dirread was possible) but tools haven't yet been updated.

Submit a patch to 9pfuse and/or v9fs providing optional (mount time) 1s cache on metadata.
