Like many people, you've probably found that increasing the size of the
disk cache in the Memory control panel can improve the performance of
many applications, especially web browsers like Netscape Navigator. The
disk cache speeds up disk input and output by keeping the contents of
files in RAM, rather than immediately reading or writing them on the
disk.
The problem with using a large disk cache is that when you save
information, the data may end up staying in the cache for quite a while
before it really gets written to your hard disk. If your Mac crashes
before the cache gets saved, your data is lost.
CacheSaver addresses this problem by periodically saving (or "flushing")
the disk cache, thus minimizing data loss should your Macintosh crash
while you are working. You can set CacheSaver to flush the cache
whenever your Mac is idle for more than a specific amount of time, or it
can do it automatically at regular intervals. CacheSaver also provides
a hotkey so you can flush the disk cache manually.
