<p>mod_cache implements an RFC 2616 compliant HTTP content
cache that can be used to cache either local or proxied content.
mod_cache requires the services of one or more storage
management modules. Two storage management modules are included in
the base Apache distribution:</p>
<dl>
<dt><module>mod_disk_cache</module></dt>
<dd>implements a disk based storage manager for use with <module>mod_proxy</module></dd>
<dt><module>mod_mem_cache</module></dt>
<dd>implements an in-memory based storage manager. mod_mem_cache
can be configured to operate in two modes: caching open file
descriptors or caching objects in heap storage. <em><module>mod_mem_cache</module></em>
is most useful when used to cache locally generated content or to cache
backend server content for mod_proxy configured for ProxyPass (aka <em>reverse proxy</em>)</dd>
</dl>
<p>Content stored and retrived keyed to the URL. Content with
access protections is not cached.</p>

<usage>
<p>The <directive>CacheEnable</directive> directive instructs
mod_cache to cache urls at or below <em>url-string</em>.
The cache store is specified with the <em>cache_type</em> argument.
<em>cache_type </em> <em> mem</em> instructs mod_cache to use the
in-memory cache storage manager implemented by <em>mod_mem_cache</em>.
<em>cache_type </em> <em> disk</em> instructs mod_cache to use the
cache storage manager implemented by <em>mod_disk_cache </em>. </p>

<name>CacheMaxStreamingBuffer</name>
<description>Maximum amount of a streamed response to buffer in memory before declaring the response uncacheable</description>
<syntax>CacheMaxStreamingBuffer <em>size_in_bytes</em></syntax>
<default>CacheMaxStreamingBuffer 0</default>
<contextlist><context>server config</context></contextlist>
<usage>
<p>Maximum number of bytes of a streamed response (i.e., a response where
the entire content is not available all at once, such as a proxy or CGI
response) to buffer before deciding if the response is cacheable. By
default, a streamed response will <em>not</em> be cached unless it has a
Content-Length header. The reason for this is to avoid using a large amount
of memory to buffer a partial response that might end up being too large
to fit in the cache anyway. To enable caching of streamed responses, use
CacheMaxStreamingBuffer to specify the maximum amount of buffer space to use
per request.</p>
<p>Note: Using a nonzero value for CacheMaxStreamingBuffer will not delay the
transmission of the response to the client. As soon as mod_cache copies a
block of streamed content into a buffer, it sends the block on to the next
output filter for delivery to the client.</p>
<example>
# Enable caching of streamed responses up to 64KB:<br />
CacheMaxStreamingBuffer 65536
</example>
</usage>
