Hello all I had very experience with squid caching server for 8 years. but i have a question. now i'm using squid 3.1 on the RHEL under 100Mbit/s bandwidth for large university. it's great in performance. but how can i cache some content is downloading with some download manager such as IDman or some other. I think squid couldn't able to cache file has been downloaded with download manager application.
Whether the object is cached by Squid depends on the headers the app and the server send out. Usually they allow caching. The problem is more likely that the download app is fetching multiple ranges simultaneously, which is a problem with Squid which may try to download the whole file for each part so that it can send cached copies in future. Squid-3 does not yet do collapsed forwarding which hid the problem in Squid-2.
We will need details of the problem you are having in order to help. Amos -- Please be using Current Stable Squid 2.7.STABLE9 or 3.1.10 Beta testers wanted for 3.2.0.4
