[Building Sakai] specifying a cache size

[Matthew Jones]

ehcache settings exposed as spring beans are configurable. You can use that
name passed to newCache to change the default values either in
components.xml or at runtime with the @ syntax as described in.

http://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-14120

As far as adjusting a cache not connected to a bean, I'm not sure. When I
modified the caching for our local provider, I just added a bean for it and
it was really easy to adjust.

See this change:

https://source.sakaiproject.org/viewsvn?view=revision&revision=68195

+ m_callCache = m_memory.newCache("org.sakaiproject.util.impl.umiac");
