"Cacheman is like a tailor for your system's disk caches, giving you the ability to modify the chunk size, icon cache, memory, and optical disk drives. Using optimization wizards, Cacheman detects your system's most efficient disk cache settings and makes modifications to improve performance and stability. If you prefer to tweak these settings yourself, Cacheman provides a user-friendly interface with slide adjustments for individual cache settings, or four preset values based on what your system is used for the most, such as file sharing or network applications. You can save different settings as Profiles in order to apply your custom configurations quickly.

Cacheman also includes a memory recovery module and various system tweaks that let you define things such as the Start Menu delay time, or the time it takes to shut down a frozen application. The comprehensive help files explain cache subjects in easy-to-understand terms and offer guidance for proper cache settings. However, you can seriously impair your system's performance if you tweak your settings incorrectly, so newbies should stick with the wizards. Cacheman's optimization will make your system run noticeably faster."

Some user comments

"I find it almost hard to believe that memory problems were the source of poor performance of my computer, since I have 256mb of PC100 installed. But, as I learned from Cacheman, it was not being utilized properly. Now my computer is faster than it has ever been, thanks to the easy to use wizards to help me set everything up correctly. 3D games always ran fast, but they took forever to load up. Normal programs, such as photo editors, also loaded slowly, but they also caused major disk activity during use. Now everything is fast! No slow downs period, with anything! I would have never guessed that Disk Cache settings were the problem (among other settings as well). Thanks alot for a superb product, I am recommending this utility to everyone I know!"

"In my opinion, Cacheman 5 should be a standard part of Windows. It certainly stabilizes it to the point that this PC has become virtually a no-crash/no-hang machine.

So: with Cacheman 5, once again: This Aptiva Rocks. Stability is just not a problem anymore, and even the Internet runs faster than before - no memory problems."

"I just had to write to thank you for your product. I have a Compaq with 800mhz PIII. The problem was a majority of the time when I attempted to burn a cd I would get underwrite errors even if I was not running any other programs. I thought I could correct this by adding additional ram. After adding another 256mb (bringing my total to 384mb) I would still get the write errors. I heard about Cacheman on CNET and thought I would give it a try. Let me tell you, I wish I had known about this before I went and purchased the additional ram! Since I have loaded Cacheman I have burned over 50 cd's and have not had a single error. But that's not all. I decided to really push it and see what my computer could handle. I added a new burner. I upgraded my burner from 4x write to 24x write. Then started the test. While burning a cd I....

(1) Signed on to AOL (man this takes allot of juice)
(2) Watched music videos online.
(3)Downloaded mp3 files
(4)Created and printed jewel cases

After starting these programs my cd was just about complete and I still had a large amount of available ram. I know that without Cacheman this wouldn't have been possible at all. I barely could burn a cd let alone try to create a jewel case or surf the web, that was a guaranteed burn error. And I enjoy watching my friends facial expressions when I run other programs while I burn a cd. They warn me not to touch anything while I'm burning or I'll have to toss out another cd-r. And I say "No I won't" and I don't!!! Thanks again."

"I just want to say that I love your new program Cacheman 5. Cacheman 4.1 was great and made a huge improvement on my system - my PIII 1GHz w/256MB RAM seemed to be more responsive than my friends Athlon 1333Hz w/512MB RAM (or at least it did until he downloaded the program), I was overjoyed when I read that there was a new version. I have yet to see any major performance differences (between 4.1 and 5) but the interface is much better, it gives me quick "wizard" solutions when I need them and the ability to tweak the settings to perfection myself when I have the time. I haven't had the cash to register yet (tuition sucks it all up) but I plan to do so as soon as I get a chance. You guys have created a very professional product that I intend to recommend to all my friends, keep up the good work."
