Do unpublished pages count toward the ’maximum’ page limit?
They do not increase the cache file size, but they may have other performance affects since they are additional rows in the database.

Are there any tricks to reduce the cache size?
Sure; every chunk, snippet, and plugin in your site is included in your cache file. One trick I often use to reduce the impact of snippets is to use a single snippet to include all snippets as php includes. This means only one, tiny snippet in my cache file. You could avoid the same with chunks by making your snippets use php includes instead of chunks for templating.
In the 0.9.7 series, this will not be as much of an issue as the cache has been organized into logical sections and a number of new caching options will allow you to tune the cache to best fit the size of your site and the environment it is deployed in.

if we dont use the internal search - does it help with performance?
Internal search? Can you be more specific? Search does not really have an impact here, other than the size of the full-text index on the site_content table, which of course will grow with the size of the table. If you don’t use any of the search snippets that utilize this search index, and don’t need to use the manager search mechanism, you might be able to remove this full-text index, but I’ve never tried it.
