Dear Amos
I'm mohsen saeedi as translator of squid for persian language. We chat
on squid IRC with each other many times already have.
I want to cache some files are being downloaded with download managers
( for example IDMan. ) as you know download manager split file to
multiple part for accelerate with simultaneously connection to http
server. how we can cache files when they are being downloaded with
squid.
thanks.
You will have to play around with the quick_abort_* and range_offset
directives to force-download a while file when a range is requested.
That way the file gets cached and later requests get the cached version.
This may need to be combined with maxconn ACL to limit the number of
simultaneous connections from each client to prevent bandwidth waste.

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.
