As I mentioned in my previous email, using small values will only lead
to a small cache on superserver (where the cache is system wide per
database, not per connection). So either try a larger number of
DefaultDbCachePages, switch to classic, or check if your database
doesn't actually have its own value configured (in which case playing
around with this setting has no effect).

decides the number of pages to cache. Setting it to 0 either disables it
or uses some kind of minimum value.
