I'm assuming that changes to any given position X on the map happen much less frequently than pathfinding operations that touch on said position X. Is this the case? If so, then investing the pre-calculation effort (updating the precalc matrix, not re-generating the whole thing) at map update time, limited to only those areas potentially benefiting, might be an effective strategy.
