You definitely want a proxy-cache in front of your mod_perl server. One thing that I like about this module is that you can control the server-side caching of content separate from the client/browser cache. So, on to the RFC. Is the name acceptable for Apache::* I will endeavor to add any functionality that makes it worthy :) For example, I think adding a virtual method that generates the filename might be useful. -- Paul Lindner [EMAIL PROTECTED] ||||| | | | | | | | | | mod_perl Developer's Cookbook http://www.modperlcookbook.org Human Rights Declaration http://www.unhchr.ch/udhr/index.htm
