I need one small answer: Should I give MaxCacheSize/MinCacheSize in bits, kilobits or megabits?

Just as clarificaiton, it is specified in 1000's of bytes.
And, in you are not running Win95 and do not have more than 512MBs installed, restricting the cache is not a good idea. (as Adrian's benchmarks confirmed)

I messed around with these settings in WinMe and in my opinion it was a waste of time . I never seen any noticable differance in the performance of my PC. I recomend you leave these settings alone and let Windows control them. IMHO, Good Luck ,Nick
