I don't know if Apache can do this sort of thing itself, but Squid certainly can (the phrase it uses for that is "delay pools"). Since you want to do this for a server whcih you run, rather than your clients accessing external servers, you want Squid in Accelerator Mode rather than Proxying Mode. See http://www.squid-cache.org for more info. > also .. any tips on how to this on a BSD box? You can certainly run Squid under BSD (and you certainly can't run netfilter under BSD).
