[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Help with Wait States and stuff

I have a 33 mhz 386 Micronics motherboard.  It has 8MB of 80ns memory and
a 32k cache.

The machine feels a lot slower than it should (about like a 25 non cache).
It is not due to HD speed (I have a 2MB disk cache) and I watch it bog
doing some things withouth the HD light come on.

The problem may be that I have a 32K cache.  Any opinions out there as to
how badly this is affecting my systems performance?  Should I go up to 64K
cache?
