[pfSense Support] varnish proxy in pfsense?
I'd be very interested if there was a project to add varnish reverse proxy to pfsense. It claims to be both linux and freebsd compatible. http://varnish.projects.linpro.no/ One could of course hack it in manually but having it as even the simplest package would be nice.

Two problems with that (I am a varnish user @ work). 1. It requires a 64 bit OS (pfSense is 32 bit currently) 2. It requires a compiler (CC, Make, etc). The compiler bit could be handled with FreeBSD ports but the 64 bit part is a sticking point ATM. But I agree, varnish is the goods and it would be nice to see it in packages one day.

You have to limit the amount of RAM it grabs, though, or it will crash immediately.
