What is the algorithm? I've never tried, but my guess is that they will both try to cache every file. In other words, this is not a good idea. > > 2) What is better to use?

You've already heard the opinions on this. In general, disk_cache is better tested and will perform better with large cache sets. Its performance depends mostly on the efficiency of your OS buffer caches. > > 3) How can I config httpd.conf to support only disk_cache? > My configuration goes as following, what is wrong with it? > I ran the apache with this configuration, but the files were not > cached in CacheRoot. Is CacheRoot writable by the httpd User/Group? Try turning LogLevel to debug and running a cachable request.
