No matter how big you make that number, I can guarantee the cache will be=

empty when you first start Zope.

Unlike the old cache, the new one doesnt count ghost objects towards its =

limit. That is fairer because ghost objects are relatively tiny. This doe=

significantly increase the *effective* capacity of a cache of size "400".=
=20
Typically I am seeing a live:ghost ratio of 8.... so that means you now g=
et=20
400 live objects, rather than 50 live objects and 350 ghosts.
