## Remarks
If the cache size exceeds the specified limit, the memory cache implementation removes cache entries.
If the total amount of physical memory in use on the system exceeds the specified limit, the memory cache implementation removes cache entries.

The setting for the <xref:System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCache.PhysicalMemoryLimit%2A> property can be read from `physicalMemoryLimitPercentage` configuration attribute in the application configuration file. Alternatively, the value can be passed when the <xref:System.Runtime.Caching.MemoryCache> class is initialized.
