Depends on the result sets you want to cache. Check the other variables in the manual, you can analyze if all the query cache is utilized at a point in time. In general 16M is low when you have 4GB, you can safely increase it.

I know that there are a lot of things to check but one of them, perhaps not the most important, is the query_cache_size. I have a dual Xeon cpu with 4gb of ram and this is a Linux dedicated server which runs only Apache and Mysql 4.1.5 I've declared Query_cache_size = 16M in the my.cnf file and I would say that in the whole we have 60% of select querys and a 40% of update querys. Is Query_cache_size=16M too conservative considering that I have 4Gb of ram ? If so what would be a more efective value? As I've said before the engine is InnoDB.
