Basically it depends on what people are looking at.
Generally anything with cgi-bin or a ? are taken directly
anlso your cache size, and how quickly things expire.
You can also increase the % to continue downloading at
if users hit stop.
You can also set a maximum object size and a maximum cache
size.
Remembering that you can only cache what has been looked at
before so if your users are very diverse you wont see
much benefit to caching.
Peer caching is good =) PCC has three proxies with 4 gig on
each, each one servicing a different section, and they
are all peers. About 20% of access;s are the other two
caches taking stuff from its cache.
squid = cool
but there is alot you can tweak and play with, a gui config
tool would make tweaking alot less grueling. But im hard
so pico / vi all the way =)
