Well, after discussing this with loic, it seems reasonable to set the
default to something like 10Meg.
The current setting (defaults to the Berkeley default) are not good.
It would be good to set a default value for htdig, and a different
default value for htsearch, but as I said in my previous mail, it's ok
to set a big cache size for htsearch, since it only does one request
and exits afterwards. The bad case would be if htsearch does a search
that spans the whole index... then it would fill up it's 10 Meg....
but then again that might be a bad thing....

Dynamically determining the size of the index seems to me a delicate
problem. Defaulting to 10Meg seems reasonable for now?
Cheers,
