hi all ! Few days ago I was at Cisco Expo 2007 in Israel, and came across truly revolutionary technology demo: WAAS. This technology is able to locally intercept and ack TCP-sessions as well as do application-layer-specific optimizations, and the performance win was HUGE - something like 10x-20x fold win ! ! !

(instead of minutes). I was totally shocked when I saw this in action. Unfortunately, Cisco and their pricing are out-of-reach for home users. Is there anything Open-Source on Linux that have similar functionality ? -- -Alexey Eremenko "Technologov" -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
