Is there a deeper reason for this? Works quite fine for that as well. What quite many heavily loaded sites do is to use Squid to offload all static content (images etc), leaving the web server to only render the pages into HTML. And if the content is only semi-dynamic allowing the rendered pages to stay in the cache for some time to further offload the web server. If these audio files is a little larger you may need to allow larger files to get cached in squid.conf. See the maximum_object_size option. Default is 4 MB. There is no upper limit. Regards Henrik
