<p><module>mod_disk_cache</module> implements a disk based storage
manager. It is primarily of use in conjunction with
<module>mod_proxy</module>.</p>
<p>Content is stored in and retrieved from the cache using URI based
keys. Content with access protection is not cached.</p>

<name>CacheRoot</name>
<description>The directory root under which cache files are
stored</description>
<syntax>CacheRoot <var>directory</var></syntax>
<contextlist><context>server config</context><context>virtual host</context>
</contextlist>
<usage>
<p>The <directive>CacheRoot</directive> directive defines the name of
the directory on the disk to contain cache files. If the <module
>mod_disk_cache</module> module has been loaded or compiled in to the
Apache server, this directive <em>must</em> be defined. Failing to
provide a value for <directive>CacheRoot</directive> will result in
a configuration file processing error. The <directive
module="mod_disk_cache">CacheDirLevels</directive> and <directive
module="mod_disk_cache">CacheDirLength</directive> directives define
the structure of the directories under the specified root directory.</p>
<example>
CacheRoot c:/cacheroot
</example>

<name>CacheSize</name>
<description>The maximum amount of disk space that will be used by the
cache in KBytes</description>

<default>CacheSize 1000000</default>
<contextlist><context>server config</context><context>virtual host</context>
</contextlist>
<usage>
<p>The <directive>CacheSize</directive> directive sets the desired
disk space usage of the cache, in KBytes (1024-byte units). This
directive does not put a hard limit on the size of the cache. The
garbage collector will delete files until the usage is at or below the
settings. Always use a value that is lower than the available disk
space.</p>
<example>
CacheSize 5000000
</example>
</usage>

<usage>
<p>The <directive>CacheGcInterval</directive> directive specifies the
