[STR New]

It seems the current 8MB RIPCache default
has become insufficient for nowadays
high-resolution (color/photo) printing
because in this case filters like pstoraster
may fail.

For an example see

I think that on nowadays usual hardware a RIPCache default
of something like 32MB (perhaps 64MB or even 128MB)
would not cause any trouble.

For hardware with very little RAM the admin can still
specify an appropriate small RIPCache value.
