If your cache is up *above* 512K, and you're running on System 4.1 or later,
it's highly likely that LightspeedC can't start up; usually it gives
an error message. However, there will be times (and this is probably one of 
them) when LightspeedC simply cannot get enough memory to warn you that
memory's critical and exit gracefully.

The only solution is to cut your cache size. (I personally don't
use the cache; it's been responsible for crashing my hard disk 
more times than I care to recall.)
