Syntax

    BUFFERS=n[,m]

Parameters

m
    Specifies the number of buffers in the secondary buffer cache. The value
    of m must be in the range 0 through 8.
[...]
The default setting for the number of buffers in the secondary cache (m) is
0 (no secondary cache buffers).

If you specify an invalid value for n or m, BUFFERS uses the default setting
of no secondary cache buffers.
[...]
Using the secondary buffer cache

Using the cache can speed up certain disk operations if you are using a
computer with an 8086 processor. If you are using a computer with a faster
processor, it is better to use <SMARTDRV> for a cache.
