Now think: An user is just doing a segmented/ranged download, right?
Squid won't cache the file because it is a range-download, not a
full file download.<br>
But I WANT squid to cache it. So I decide to use "range_offset_limit
-1", but then on every GET squid will re-download the file from the
beginning, opening LOTs of simultaneous connections and using too
much bandwidth, doing just the OPPOSITE it's meant to!<br>
<br>
Is there a smart way to allow squid to download it from the
beginning to the end (to actually cache it), but only on the FIRST
request/get? Even if it makes the user wait for the full download,
or cancel it temporarily, or.. whatever!! Anything!!<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
