It doesn't seem to make much difference what size you use for the tablebase
cache. I've tried up to 512MB, but could see no performance improvements in my
tests. Like BK, I now use 8MB. On the other hand if you have 6-man tablebases (I
don't) perhaps you should experiment. Someone more knowledgable should comment
in that regard...
