threadsafe (can use more than one CPU), and faster (uses large files rather than many files). PR: 21318 Submitted by: Sergey Oskin <oZZ@FreeBSD.org.ru>

Oops - caching proxy server.
|
|
Oops! is a proxy server; the main aims of its development being
|
|
stable operation, service speed, main protocols support,
|
|
modularity, ease at use. What is one more server for when there is
|
|
already Squid? I personally was not satisfied with Squid on some
|
|
points, that is was why I wished to get rid of it. And that was done.
|
|
|
|
Basic differences from Squid:
|
|
Each request is served by a separate thread, which allows to use all
|
|
available processors on multiprocessor machine.
|
|
Cashed documents are stored in one or several big files. This makes
|
|
it possible to remove from the operational system a load on operation
|
|
with directories and to speed up access to the documents, and to use
|
|
raw-devices as a storage of cashed objects either.
|
|
The program modular structure provides extension of its function
|
|
without any change of the source code.
|
|
The special attention was paid to the point of providing a stable,
|
|
continuous, unbreakable work, easy and simple
|
|
configuration/reconfiguration. Thus, for example, the reconfiguration
|
|
on the fly doesn't result in a breakaway of already established connections.
