(ziproxy using Squid as parent). If not, how can I implement a ziproxy-like HTML/JS/CSS optimization in Squid? Is there a pluggable module interface for this purpose? There is a gzip module for Squid-3, but it most likely needs to be updated a bit as it hasn't been maintained in quite a while. Also it's not yet verified to act correctly wrt ETag.

My question is, will having squid go through ziproxy have any affects on the cache use ? Because the image(gif,jpeg,tif,..) on the server will never match the copy received by squid cache #1. Since it would be scaled / altered on it's way down ? Thanks Yes it usually is. So the ziproxy will easily keep its current position at the head of the slow link. However, you make a worrying comment at the end there. Ziproxy or any that alter the content MUST adapting the HTTP headers to match the new content. If its not doing that its should not be used to live traffic. Amos -- Please use Squid 2.6STABLE17+ or 3.0STABLE1+ There are serious security advisories out on all earlier releases.
