Setting Cache Capacity

Cache capacity value is used to derive the cache directory structure. The number of sections that can be in the cache directory is derived from the cache capacity. Cache capacity is directly related to the cache hierarchy in the cache directories. The bigger the capacity, the larger the hierarchy. The cache capacity should be equal to or greater than the cache size. Setting the capacity larger than the cache size can be helpful if you know that you plan to increase the cache size later (such as by adding an external disk). The cache capacity can be of maximum 128 GB which will create 256 sections.
