caching HTTP proxy server written for performance
A lightweight but powerful proxy cache. Its main features are:
* HTTP/1.1 (without persistent connections yet) and FTP
* Fast start. It is ready to serve requests immediately after start.
* On-disk storages are checked in background, while serving requests
directly from network
* Clean reconfiguration on SIGHUP - no broken sessions, new settings
applied to new connections
* Easy-to-read/understand config file and ACLs
* Bandwidth control
* Modular structure. Several module types exist: logging, access, output,
error reporting, URL filtering, ...
* Objects are stored in large files: no file per object scheme.
* These large files can be raw devices (like /dev/hda)
