[comp.sys.apple] AWGS V1.1 Question

This question is directed to Either Syd Polk or Scott Lindsey at Claris.

I just received my V1.1 upgrade and all in all I'm quite pleased with it.  
I am running into some strange problems resulting in  system crashes.  I
cleared up the problems after several frustrating hours last night by 
completely rebuilding the system files...suspect some were corrupted.

Today I've worked with the spreadsheet all day with no problems.  
(Multiple entries and exits...).  When I went to open up a data base 
(which was converted) my system crashed.  It also crashed tying to create 
a new data base.  

Questions:

1)  I've got 2.25M of memory so I have /RAM5 Volume of 192K and have set 
the cache for 64K.  Would setting the cache to anything other than 0 cause 
strange problems?

2)  What is the reason for setting the cache to 0 in the first place?  Is 
this due to memory considerations on a 1 meg machine or what?

I'll keep the two of you posted if I find out a root cause of my problem.
