My cache is typically in the order of 200-250MB. well, i'll continue my experiments then, to see how high i can raise the cache without problems. i finally hit a crash at 1.9GB, unfortunately, so my theory about a 2GB upper bound is now dead in the water. :) another consideration is, how high should a cache be for a given quantity of data? should i reasonably expect that i should be able to cache the entire filesystem, so venus can maintain somewhat of a local disk copy of everything, or should i think of it more as a true cache of the data? i currently have 19GB of data, so a 250MB cache probably isn't too shabby. though, a larger cache has saved me in situations when codasrv dies or becomes unreachable. tradeoffs, tradeoffs. > 266 is precisely 256 + 10, which would match a wraparound on the link > count field.
