Varnish is a web accelerator written with performance and flexibility in mind. It's modern architecture gives it a significantly better performance than many of it's competing products. Varnish store web pages in memory so the web servers don't have to create the same web page over and over again. The web server only recreate a page when it is changed. Additionally Varnish can serve web pages much faster then any application server is capable of - giving the website a significant speed up. Varnish is free software licensed under a two-clause BSD licence, also known as the FreeBSD licence. ( http://www.varnish-cache.org/about ) Varnish has packages for Debian, FreeBSD, Red Hat and Ubuntu: * Vendor URL: http://www.varnish-cache.org/releases/varnish-cache-2.1.4 * Debian URL: http://packages.debian.org/sid/varnish * FreeBSD URL: http://www.freebsd.org/es/ports/www.html#varnish-1.1.2 * Ubuntu URL: http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/varnish I have prepared two packages: * Current: varnish 2.1.4-1 => last released version, 2.1.4 * Test: varnish r5665 => subversion trunk r5665 version The packages can be downloaded from sourceforge: wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/cygvarnish/cygwin-varnish%20package/varnish-2.1.4-1-src.tar.bz2 wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/cygvarnish/cygwin-varnish%20package/varnish-2.1.4-1.tar.bz2 wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/cygvarnish/cygwin-varnish%20package/varnish-r5665-1-src.tar.bz2 wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/cygvarnish/cygwin-varnish%20package/varnish-r5665-1.tar.bz2 wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/cygvarnish/cygwin-varnish%20package/setup.hint ( Sourceforge web page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/cygvarnish/files/cygwin-varnish%20package/ ) Varnish cygwin patched source version can be compiled succesfully in Linux and Solaris. I have submited the modifications to vendor in order to prepare a better multiplatform code. Varnish need GCC in runtime because its VCL configuration file is translated to C and compiled in "so" file in order to better performance. Varnish also needs Libpcre and Libncurses.
