I guess we need to do some timing tests to see what the impact
of increasing the owl node limit to 1500 or more would be.

I've put up a patch called owl_nodes_3_3.1 which allows you to
set the default OWL_NODE_LIMIT at configure time with
'configure --enable-owl-node-limit=1500'. The default is
still 1000 and it can still be overridden at run time.

I noticed that although DEFAULT_CACHE_SIZE defaults to 8Mb
instead of the old 16 this didn't get changed in config.vc*.
The patch fixes that.

This patch is now in the CVS.
