I like was the way it lays out it's http and ftp cache according to the = url. It's probably not as efficient as squid, but it does make it nice a= nd easy to set up a local search facility to find pages in it's cache and= translate the url's so everything gets fetched using the original URL an= d links up nicely. Also, I find it's logging better for squid for looking at exactly what's = going through in the headers while browsing the web, which has been usefu= l for debugging on occasion. (Can someone reccomend a more general tool = for analyzing tcp sessions and presenting in legible form) I can't vouch one way or the other for how it performs doing more seriou= s work.
