I have already set my to:
C:\h\Data\Temporary
It has not helped really. I had to reduce some directory names.

What about a check for FLOW3CGL and FLOW3 (while creating the cache) for 
the path length for system compability, like
min(PHP_MAXPATHLEN_WIN, PHP_MAXPATHLEN_MAC, PHP_MAXPATHLEN_LINUX) - 
len("c:/tmp") - len(something for the cache, like a hash etc) = path 
with packagename + shorter filename.

len(htdocs-path) + len("Packages/") <= len("c:/tmp") + len(something 
from the cache).

Setting a shorter htdocs-path on windows should not be a problem, 
because sharded hosting always uses linux. If you use a windows server 
properbly can configure it by your own.

Cheers,
