Hm, I use 0 <size> 1, since the last parameter is the number of pools you 
want.  I'm not clear what allocating the memory and not assigning it to a 
pool does (it may well work).  As for the size of the cache, db_stat -m 
should give you some information (so should other db_stat -<flags>) to help 
you determine what you need to do.  Howard Chu has posted several 
suggestions to the list on how to configure DB_CONFIG in just this last 
month, I suggest searching the list archives on that. :)
