You could use a redirector (http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidRedirectors).
That I believe will add to the processing, making it slower and also add one more component to the system (web server). I want to be able to inject content directly into the cache store, hoping that it will make prepopulation faster, if I already have the content. Thanks for the help though. If I were to implement something like PURGE (but opposite in functionality) how would I go about doing it. Is there an API for squid or something ?
