have a limited amount of memory (RAM) installed.
To change the cache size that FileMaker Pro uses:
1. In FileMaker Pro, choose the FileMaker Pro application menu > Preferences > Application.
2. Click the Memory tab.
3. Type a number in the Attempt cache size of box.
4. Click OK.
The next time you start FileMaker Pro, the new cache size is used.
