Re: squid ip cache or local named?

Id say both. Squids ipcache only holds specifically looked up info,
whereas a local named holds recursive info on many servers/domains.
Problem w/ relying soley on named is (at least ver 4.9) can only handle
one lookup at a time, and thus makes programs doing lookups wait. Use
both.
