 * Hi All
 * I got this error message when I tried to update an existing page.
 * <a href=”
    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried
   to allocate 15169 bytes) in /var/www/html/b2/wp-includes/cache.php on line 161
 * Being very new to this I am not sure what to do but can the cache be increased?
 * Thanks
 * John
