I added "RUN=C:\OS2\CACHE.EXE  /LAZY:3 to config.sys
which halts the boot with " read ahead is disabled-Press enter
to continue" which will be a pain to put up with. Maybe it's
supposed to be in "startup".

Checking later with the cache command gives


[C:\]cache

          DiskIdle:     1000 milliseconds
            MaxAge:     5000 milliseconds
        BufferIdle:      500 milliseconds
        Cache size:     2048 kbytes
3 Lazy write worker(s) are enabled.
1 Read ahead worker(s) are enabled.

Previously  only one lazy write was enabled
so it does work. Now to wait and see if any 
noticable differences surface.
