Can't change Dnsmasq cache size

[thelonelycoder]

The whole exercise is pointless anyway IMHO. 1500 entries is already 10x more than the default. I can't imagine a home setup where it's important to be caching 10,000 entries. Also, I've not seen anyone post their dnsmasq stats that show they're using more than 1500.

As posted earlier in this thread, I fully agree with you on the 1500 being more than sufficient for even the most enthusiastic user.
Increasing it will make Dnsmasq run slower, this is what my tests showed.
