In the comments about this program on SharewareOnSale, you can read :
"For those asking how that works, I have 32 Gb DDR4 memory, and allowed 8 Gb as cache.
On a SATA SSD, I have :
500 read and 500 write without cache.
15000 read and 500 write with cache."
I think this answers the first question of Divinenews : "Cache size" is your own decision (probably depending on the use you have of your PC).
As for "Block Size", I did not find any explanation.
At first sight (you'll tell me if I'm wrong), this program doesn't prevent writes on an SSD for example, but would optimize the system by the speed of access to data/programs that are often reproduced.
You will note that the conclusion of the above comment runs counter to the statement quoted above by the developer:
"Improve the life of a real hard disk
All hard disks have read and write life, and fast cache reduces the number of reads, which will increase the life of the hard disk."
