Hello to all friends. How can I install cache server for caching downloaded files ? I try use Squid and Polipo for it. but it’s not working properly. Squid can caching downloaded files when download the file without Download Managers.(Like IDM) When I use a Download Manager , Squid can’t cache the downloaded file. ( Max connections number in IDM = 16) Please help me , How can I cache downloaded file , when download file with IDM and multi connection mode (max connections number = 16 or 8) My download speed is 500 KB/s (When I’m downloading files without Internet Download Manager). If I use the IDM (Or any other Internet Download Manager) and set the connections number to 16 , increase my download speed to 800 KB/s. I want to downloading files with 800 KB/s speed. If I set the connections number to 1 , Squid or Polipo cache is working properly , but my download speed decrease to 500 KB/s. And if I set the connections number to 16 or any number that’s greater than 1 , cache not working properly. My cache server only use with Internet Download Manager and it’s not set in the web browsers. Thanks.
