<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: <em>mod_disk_cache</em> implements a
disk based storage manager (generally used for proxy caching) and
<em>mod_mem_cache</em> implements an in-memory based storage
manager (primarily useful for caching local content). </p>
<p>Content stored and retrived keyed to the URL. Content with
access protections is not cached.</p>
