Cached is in the ports collection and there are no problems compiling
and installing it.
BTW: Cached isn't a WWW server. It can cache either incoming http
requests or can be configured to act as proxy cache for your own
(outgoing) http requests.
I use cached here as proxy cache for outgoing http requests and
use my ISP's cached as neighbour cache.
As WWW server I use apache. You could speed up apache by running
it on a separate machine and running an own cached proxy cache,
that speeds up incoming http requests to apache ...
Optimum configuration
machine A machine B

- - cached proxy - apache WWW
&& caching only - cached http accel.
