No it does not control hash and cannot control it. Movei use some ini file to decide how much hash to use and does not consult chessbase. It ignore hash commands. There are instruction to the user how to change hash but the chessbase interface does not know about these instruction and I changed them recently in my last private version. Chessbase interface can only do book learning because it can control the book moves that the engine does not decide about them and it also can use tablebases but it simply cannot do nothing about other things.
