Is there Not per-request. per-Squid, and only the number N you configure. Each HTTP request only adds a tiny sub-request to find out the mapping, still a slow down but nowhere near as bad as a fork. It also has a very high chance of mapping to a cached object in reverse-proxies, which reduces the back-end fetch and makes up for the extra time. > any other way to tag links and munge the URLS into a single page request > for squid. The best way to help yourself out is to ensure that the content you want cached has its own public no-changing URL. That way your squid can cache them without problems or fancy stuff, AND all other caches around the Internet can do the same on your behalf (DDoS protection free of charge!). Squid-3.2 adds the ability to do proper redirection maps with deny_info instead of URL rewriters. But thats a year or so away from production use yet. Amos
