Squid Proxy Cache Information (Monthly Posting)
-----------------------------------------------

* What is Squid?

Squid is a high-performance caching proxy server for web clients.  It
supports FTP, gopher, and HTTP protocols.

Squid servers can operate in a hierarchical fashion.  A server can
have any number of parents or siblings.  Caches in a hierarchy use
the ICP (Internet Cache Protocol) to query each other for discovery
of cached objects.

Squid is available in source form under the GNU Public License.
It can be built on most modern Unix operating systems that have an
ANSI C compiler.

* Why is Squid a good thing?

Caching proxy servers improve performance for end users' web
browsers, and reduce bandwidth utilization.
