I am building a zope based application to manage the (medium) volume delivery of a large number of what are essentially static documents from a central server. The server itself is a Win2003 server -- I think with 3.x Mhz cpu, 1 gbyte of memory and reasonably fast hard disks but I don't have full control over it. It is only being used as a zope server -- no other requirements. I have no control of upstream caching ( though there are caches strategically deployed in this corporation to manage bandwidth usage). I am looking at local caching options available in Zope 2.6.2 (Ram Cache, Accelerated HTTP Cache) and am not sure I understand the purpose and usage of those products. Is it likely that I will be better off using no local caching? If one of the standard Cache products is recommended how do I configure it? How are elements associated with the cache? Can I locate the cache in a "sub directory" and have it cache all elements below it in the hierarchy automatically.
