Joshua, Thank you for the reply. I'll dig deeper into the list for the disk_cache not storing files for the specified time. I was under the impression that mem_cache would be faster. I had planned on storing files that are accessed many times from a couple of directories, ie, /xml/ or /images/ in memory so they'd just sit there happily. Then for the dynamic parts of the site disk_cache could store those requests. I'll stick with just disk_cache for now. -Paul On 8/21/07, Joshua Slive <joshua@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 8/20/07, Paul <paul.marsh@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > All, > > > > I am having a heck of a time with getting mod_cache to work properly. > > I am trying to have it cache a mixture of static files and proxy > > generated content. > > > > I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions. > > > > First with mod_mem_cache I am seeing entries in my logs like the > > following for a URL content generated by a proxy-balancer backend : > > Are you using mem_cache and disk_cache simultaneously?
