I don't know the exact cache size it uses by default, but if it's the same as Jellyfin Media Player's default, it should be 75MB of cache.
The player will only load up enough data until the 75MB are full, then it will start replacing it as you progress through the video.
This depends per video's bitrate, but I've only ever noticed Shim's cache grow to about 8 minutes ahead of where I'm currently at by default.
Jellyfin Media Player does have an option to let you set it up to 500MB of cache however.
