You can set the cache all you like, but to work it is dependent upon the new 
128K ROMs unfortunately.  I tried it for a little while once, and it didn't seem
as good for floppy access as TurboControl, but then again it might be
prioritizing other resources instead.  Does anyone know the algorithm it
uses?
