I can confirm. Varnish is cool for static sites! Things become more difficult when site content changes depending on FE users. Also if I remember correctly, Varnish does not cache by default when the site sets cookies. PHP and TYPO3 both set cookies. It needs a bit of tweaking in Varnish. -- Dmitry Dulepov TYPO3 core team "Sometimes they go bad.
