internet caching on server

[JayP]

I'm using Wingate as a proxy server for my other 2 computers. The 2 client computers access the net through the server. I was wondering what I should be setting the server "Cache Options" to for best performance ?

For a small operation it really isn't going to be a whole lot of gain from that. If you go to the same webpage frequently (overclockers.com) then you'll save on caching the images if you're on dialup, but there really aren't a whole lot of them. I'd say about 50mb of hard drive space and about 4mb in memory depending on the websites you go to. You can also just cache on your browser, i'd do this instead unless multiple computers frequently go to the same websites. Like in schools they install rather large cache servers because the students pretty much all go to the same websites.
