The formula is 2^x. x=ttable. Or if set to 20 being x the size of hash is
1,048,576 or about 1 MB. If set ttable=21 this will give you double the about of
hash or 2mb and so on to 4(22=x), 8(23=x), 16(24=x)...MB.

To change the hash size open CM.ini in notepad and change the setting for ttable
then click save from the file menu on the notepad toolbar. CM6000 will now use
that hash size when you restart.

Remember windows needs memory to, so don't set the ttable to big or you will
diskswap the hashtable.
