Actually, AppleShare 1.1 does not use the RAM cache setting that you specify.
When AppleShare is run, it allocates a certain amount of memory for itself, a
certain amount of memory for a concurrent application, and then sets up the
rest as a RAM cache. Therefore, you will always be getting maximum performance
from the RAM cache. You can see the size of the RAM cache at any time by 
opening the Control Panel, but you cannot set it.
