 RAK> I disagree with you. If you have a _hardware_ disk cache (i.e. a
caching
 RAK> disk controller) then ALL your disk data is funneled through the rather
 RAK> slow AT bus (8 mhz, 12 if you are lucky). A _software_ cache is in ram,
 RAK> running at full system speed (i.e. 33 mhz).

Not on a localbus 33Mhz machine...
