[. . . ] There is a button for clearing the memory cache on the Cache tab screen (before you click the Configure button). The server caches "nodes" in memory so that it doesn't need to go to the database to get nodes that were recently retrieved. You can clear the cache if you believe you are seeing problems relating to the server's cache not being synchronized with the database. 1 To change the cache location, click Configure on the Cache tab, and browse to the new location. The maximum cache size is the currently available free space on the target drive--the target drive is the drive where the cache directory will be. For example, the default cache size for a target drive with greater than four gigabytes of free space is two gigabytes. Administrators can set either a local or global value for cache size.

Set the maximum nodes in memory cache--use either the global default or a local override.
