Well, I do have cache set to 500Mbs but I did that so that it could
cache images and such on web pages.  I frequent some sites that have a
lot of images and since I am on dial-up, very slow dial-up, I like it to
store them locally as much as possible.  Over clockers forums is one
such site that takes forever to load when I have recently cleared the cache.

I think what is needed here is a limit to the downloads.rdf file's size
or something to that effect.  I can say this, I love that it is now
faster.  I just wonder how many other people are having this issue and
have no clue what is wrong.
