Varnish Cache – cPanel Plugin (READ ME)
Description
Varnish is an HTTP accelerator designed for content-heavy dynamic web sites. In contrast to other HTTP accelerators, many of which began life as client-side proxies or origin servers, Varnish was designed from the ground up as an HTTP accelerator.
Performance
While Varnish is designed to reduce contention between threads to a minimum, its performance will only be as good as that of the system's pthreads implementation. Additionally, a poor malloc implementation may add unnecessary contention and thereby limit performance.
When the requested document is in cache, response time is typically measured in microseconds. This is significantly better than most HTTP servers, so even sites consisting mostly of static content will benefit from Varnish.
