> # Caching Tab of Performance Configuration

> This tab displays the memory and disk space reserved by the various caches used by Directory Server.

> Database cache size. Specifies the space reserved on disk (in megabytes) for all indexes in all suffix databases. By default, the value is 10.0 megabytes.

> Initialize cache size. Specifies the space reserved on disk (in megabytes) for import operations. By default, the value is 20.0 megabytes.

> Entry caches. This table lists the size (in megabytes) of the entry cache and the maximum number of entries for each of the suffixes in the directory tree. An unlimited number of entries is shown by the value -1. By default, the entry cache is 10.0 megabytes and the number of entries is unlimited for each suffix.

> To modify a value, double click in the table cell to select that parameter.

> Cache total size. This status line displays the total cache size (in megabytes) reserved by the server. This value is the sum of the database cache size, the initialize cache size, and the entry cache size for each of the suffixes.

> Save. Click this button to apply any modification you make to the cache sizes. However, changes to these parameters will only take effect after the server has been restarted.
