as a accelerator only

cylent
I want to setup a astaro box purely for the sake of caching.

i use satellite internet for my access and theres daily quotas and so on 

so

would it be possible to use a HOME license and setup astaro for caching?

if so whats the recommended amount of ram?

    Should work fine with at least 512MB of RAM.

    There isn't much control over the cache settings, but, I believe, the larger the hard drive, the bigger the cache will be. I'd suggest at least a 40GB.

    As cheap as memory is right now (I can get 1GB DDR2 for about $26.00 or so) I would run 1GB.  Yes, you can use the HTTP Proxy as an accelerator only... the AV can be disabled if you desire (though I would leave it turned on), and the cache size is directly related to the drive size, so the bigger the better.  If performance is what you're after, make sure you use a fast HD (7200 or 10K speeds, SATA2) ... it does make a difference.

    what about the license?

    I understand the home license has a 10ip limitation?
