James Peach commented on TS-974: -------------------------------- Related to TS-475. If we are lucky TS-475 will fix this too. > TS should have a mode to hold partial objects in cache > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: TS-974 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-974 > Project: Traffic Server > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Cache > Affects Versions: 3.0.1 > Reporter: William Bardwell > > For ATS to do an excelent job caching large files like video it would need to > be able to hold partial objects for a large file. This could be done in a > plugin or in the core. This would need to be integrated with the Range > handling code to serve requests out of the partial objects and to get more > parts of a file to satisfy a Range request. > An intermediate step (also do-able in the core or in a plugin) would be to > have some settings to let the Range handling code be able to trigger a full > file download either asynchronously when a Range response indicates that the > file isn't larger than some threshold, or synchronously when a Range request > could reasonably be answered quickly from a full request. (Right now Range > requests are tunneled if there is not full cached content as far as I can > tell.) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
