I doubt that. :-)
In the CM.ini, the hash size is not MB, but powers of 2 in bytes.
So 20 means 2^20 bytes = 1 MB, 21 means 2^21 bytes = 2 MB and so on.
Setting it to 40 would give CM 2^40 bytes = 1 million MB hash.
You don't happen to have Deep Blue or Option White on your desktop, do you? ;-))

I recommend setting the hash size to 16 MB (i.e. to "24") on your system.
