Default PT10 & CPTK: Extended ram cache not appearing?

I have the Complete Production Toolkit and just upgraded to Pro Tools 10. Anyone know if there a setting to enable the extended ram caching? I am not seeing the "Disk Cache" or "Timeline Cached" meters appear in the System Usage window. Maybe I need to reinstall the CPTK?

It is available with the CPTK, not just HD. I think I may have answered my own question by stumbling upon page 81 of the Pro Tools Reference Guide:

"These meters are only present if a fixed Cache Size is selected
in the Playback Engine dialog."

I'll see if it works when I make it to the studio today...

Yes, you have to set it up first in Playback Engine like Delay Comp.

I have the CPT but in the playback section the only option for the disk cache is "normal". There are no other options. Therefore, the extended disk cache doesn't show up for me. Anyone have any answer for this?

How much RAM do you have? You need more than 3GB to enable it.
