Also if you can understand russian, check out mod_accel+mod_deflate, which is both HTTP/1.1 compliant and does on-the-fly gzipping of content, which makes a *huge* difference to percieved performance for the user. Plus it uses Apache style configs, rather than the scary Squid-style config. -- <!-- Matt --> <:->Get a smart net</:-> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
