any  ideas? I was thinking of asking the varnish developers about their 
approach to the subject.
Anorher issue is that the cache object id (store-id)is decided before any 
response is being recived from the server.


The problem you presented here, assuming, you are pointing at range requests, is very well known to DB-design: How to store variable long objects, and how to manage extents of these objects. So there are solutions already available.

Rock-Large could be the FS to be used for caching range requests. First of all, it is in development stage anyway: never change running software (read: other FS). Second, for me, looking from outside, there seem to be some "hooks" already allowing to implement extention of a cached object. So "Partial content" is a valid reason to be considered in Rock-large developmnet, I guess.

But why do you consider it to be a problem, that store-id is decided already 
ahead of response ?



Cheers

Reiner
