A better question is: what is your current utilization of that 16MB
cache? The query cache flushes any results dependant on a table when
that table is modified, so if you really have 40% updates, chances are
that very few queries are cachable at all. Run
show status like 'qcache%';
, and take a look at free_memory, inserts, and hits.
