HTTP cache, any use?

frufru
on my server i've upgraded my internal nic from 100mbit to gigabit and i was curious what's my maximum speed on that nic with transparent proxy and enabled cache. to my surprise the wan and internal maximum inbound and outbound speeds are identical 8mbit and 1mbit, it seems enabling the cache doesn't really has any positive effect. is it really so?

    I only have one client where caching makes any noticible difference; an auto dealership where all the salespeople access the same on-line training videos.  Other than that, I think there's so much ariety in what people download that caching doesn't make any real difference, and it can be the cause of some problems.

    Having said that, you might be running a test that truly measures the speed of your connection.
