This seems like a good thing to me; the file must be local anyway, or we wouldn't be able to use sendfile to begin with, so it's not going to benefit from caching (even mod_mem_cache really, since all of the OS's with sendfile cache the file in ram anyway). And since the point of X-Sendfile is to allow for /dynamic/ choice of file to send, caching would be inappropriate. I guess the marginal case might be when mod_cache would do a better of job of negotiating the Vary: semantics than any backend cgi/whatever might. -- Colm MacCárthaigh Public Key: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
