I just discovered a graphical display of memory under KDE.  I noticed that 
about 49MB of my total 128MB of ram is being consumed by disk cache.
This computer does not seem slow, but it does seem to have problems when I am 
running several programs at once, like Suse help and a konsole.

Can this cache be adjusted?  What is the effect/  Is there a test program so I 
can see the effect.  I have 6 to 10% of my physical ram free, this is why I 
am addressing the issue.
