<h3>Summary</h3>
<p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cache_disk.html">mod_cache_disk</a></code> implements a disk based storage
manager for <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cache.html">mod_cache</a></code>.</p>
<p>The headers and bodies of cached responses are stored separately on
disk, in a directory structure derived from the md5 hash of the cached
URL.</p>
<p>Multiple content negotiated responses can be stored concurrently,
however the caching of partial content is not yet supported by this
module.</p>
<p>Atomic cache updates to both header and body files are achieved
without the need for locking by storing the device and inode numbers of
the body file within the header file. This has the side effect that
cache entries manually moved into the cache will be ignored.</p>
<p>The <code class="program"><a href="../programs/htcacheclean.html">htcacheclean</a></code> tool is provided to list cached
URLs, remove cached URLs, or to maintain the size of the disk cache
within size and/or inode limits. The tool can be run on demand, or
can be daemonized to offer continuous monitoring of directory sizes.</p>
<div class="note"><h3>Note:</h3>
<p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cache_disk.html">mod_cache_disk</a></code> requires the services of
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cache.html">mod_cache</a></code>, which must be
loaded before mod_cache_disk.</p>
</div>
<div class="note"><h3>Note:</h3>
<p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cache_disk.html">mod_cache_disk</a></code> uses the sendfile feature to
serve files from the cache when supported by the platform, and
when enabled with <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#enablesendfile">EnableSendfile</a></code>.
However, per-directory and .htaccess configuration of
<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#enablesendfile">EnableSendfile</a></code> are ignored by
<code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cache_disk.html">mod_cache_disk</a></code> as the corresponding settings are not
available to the module when a request is being served from the
cache.</p>

determine the approximate structure of your cache hierarchy.</p>

<p>The <code class="directive">CacheReadSize</code> directive sets the
minimum amount of data, in bytes, to be read from the backend before the
data is sent to the client. The default of zero causes all data read of
any size to be passed downstream to the client immediately as it arrives.
Setting this to a higher value causes the disk cache to buffer at least
this amount before sending the result to the client. This can improve
performance when caching content from a reverse proxy.</p>
<p>This directive only takes effect when the data is being saved to the
cache, as opposed to data being served from the cache.</p>

<p>The <code class="directive">CacheReadTime</code> directive sets the minimum amount
of elapsed time that should pass before making an attempt to send data
downstream to the client. During the time period, data will be buffered
before sending the result to the client. This can improve performance when
caching content from a reverse proxy.</p>
<p>The default of zero disables this option.</p>
<p>This directive only takes effect when the data is being saved to the
cache, as opposed to data being served from the cache. It is recommended
that this option be used alongside the
<code class="directive"><a href="#cachereadsize">CacheReadSize</a></code> directive to
ensure that the server does not buffer excessively should data arrive faster
than expected.</p>

<p>The <code class="directive">CacheRoot</code> directive defines the name of
the directory on the disk to contain cache files. If the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cache_disk.html">mod_cache_disk</a></code> module has been loaded or compiled in to the
Apache server, this directive <em>must</em> be defined. Failing to
provide a value for <code class="directive">CacheRoot</code> will result in
a configuration file processing error. The <code class="directive"><a href="#cachedirlevels">CacheDirLevels</a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="#cachedirlength">CacheDirLength</a></code> directives define
