I searched around for an answer to this, but wasn't able to find anything comprehensive, so I'll ask here. I'm a total newbie at this stuff, so please let me know if I missed some obvious link.

I have a single webserver with 5 IP addresses. Each IP has at least one apache-based site on it, and sometimes there are multiple on a single IP via NameVirtualHost. None of the sites share any content.

What is the best varnish setup for this? It seems there are multiple options:

1. Have a single varnishd listen on all the IPs and run them all through a single apache port with name virtual hosts, so it's one big cache?

2. Multiple varnish daemons, one per IP, apache listening on multiple ports, one per IP for the back end?

3.  Something else entirely?

I don't have a ton of memory, if that matters. I need to use a cache mostly to handle spikes from being reddited and whatnot, the normal daily load is fine for the server.

Thanks,
Chris
