[comp.windows.ms] Seeking advice on memory usage

I recently upgraded my 286 to 4 Meg of RAM.  My current configuration
is:

	1.2 Meg. RAM disk holding frequently-used apps.
	2 Meg. disk cache (1 Meg. cache under Windows)
	128k for 4DOS/DOS 5.0 in extended memory.

This leaves me about 1100k under Windows.  The question is, would I
get better performance by removing the RAM disk and upping the disk
cache to 2 Meg. under Windows?  If it helps, the cache in question is
HyperDisk, and the RAM disk is RAMDRIVE.SYS.
