Running linux client.  Ran out of WU's last outage so was going to
increase
the cache limit but could find no cache preference settings on the
website anymore.  How do you set your cache limit now or has that
option been removed?  Was going to use the
-return_results_immediately option so WU credit wouldn't be delayed.
Would really prefer the cache to stay at or above a minimum level
unlike its present behavior where it goes down to the
last WU before reloading.  TIA

It's been changed in your Prefs to "Contact Network Every .... days".
Mine is set at 8.  When my cache gets down to 8 days worth of WU's,
it downloads more.

Yep, I've noticed the same thing and figured that's how it works too. Not
as good as the previous system methinks as you have no control over the
amount of WUs it downloads when it hits the 'x days' threshold. Plus the
name is misleading. "Contact network every x days"? It contacts the
network heaps more than that, it actually means "Keep x days worth of WUs
in local cache". The client contacts the network at least every 2 hrs 34
mins on my machine. --

Its working now.  Hope their troubleshooting is better than their English.
