FYI, I've had the cache card enabled and running on my IIci with
a 1.2BETA kernel for over a month now with no problems (ncr scsi).
I'm seeing about a 15-20% performance gain by using the cache.
Anyone know why the slot is disabled by default?

another FYI:  I put a DayStar 040 accelerator into the cache slot,
and booted with Kevin Radke's DayStar enhanced kernel, it will boot into
single-user, but hangs after issuing several commands.  I think
the 040's caches aren't being flushed properly.  Does anyone know
if the DayStar kernel source mods have made it into -current yet?
If not, where can I find the diffs?
