Safari Question

Hi. Safari is my main browser but it's been driving me crazy lately. I think somehow I changed the cache settings, but I can't figure out how to fix them.

Here's what's happening:

I usually have a number of tabs open. However, when I click on a tab that I'd previously opened, Safari redownloads the page, instead of using the cached version. This makes browsing much slower when switching between tabs. I don't remember seeing this behavior in the past, but I've noticed it in the past week or so. I'm using the newest version, 5.1.7.

If it is a cache issue, I'm not sure how to tell. I can't find the Preferences to change my cache size.

Thanks,

Sky
