It's the intel platform that limits it.
On a standard pentium, over than 64MB of MB's couldn't be cached
because of architecture limits.
Caching on Xeon/PIIs isn't limited, but you'd have to increase the cache size
according to the memory size.
Multiple processors also have more cache memory on it, which means you can
increase you cache size by using multiple processors, even if you don't need
more
processor power.

However, these limitations are not Windows NT Specific.
