Withe 512 MB of RAM on Windows XP I wouldn't bother with Cacheman as you won't gain anything. This is only my opinion.

Chances are it wont help you too muc, but probably wont hinder too much either. In older evolutions of Windows, memory cleanup was only really done properly when you didnt have enough left and Windows went into panic mode trying to page a whole lot to disk.

Running the inbuilt wizards in cacheman will help you set your caches and tweak your settings for the way that you use your computer. You can turn on conservative swap file usage if you have lots of RAM and seldom use it all but apart from that it will just sit in your system tray and tell you how many 100MB of RAM is free.

But in any case, it is not going to have as great an affect as running it on a PII with win98
