determine cache or no cache of dynamic content

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hello,
	

[win2003 / apache 2.2]

using mod_disk_cache and mod_rewrite we are trying to cache responses
with rarely updated but dynamic content served from a heavy loaded backend.

how can one determine if a certain request is actually served from the
cache and not the backend from where it originally came from ?

we can see our disk cache is growing, but assuming we (via script for
example) just hit the same URL over and over again, would it not then be
possible to turn off the backend server completely and our frontend
would still work happily serving from the disk cache? (that test would work if it was a static file like a gif image it seems)

below are relevant parts from configuration and response headers

thanks
