Re: proxycache memory allocation
Not sure about it (it might have already been discussed), but I believe
pcache should "understand" "proxycache-" prefixed directives, and pass
those it doesn't recognize to the private database it uses to store cached
objects. So "proxycache-index" __should__ be recognized as soon as the
private database recognizes it (e.g. back-bdb). If this feature is not
implemented, I think it should, otherwise there would be no means to
separate directives for the underlying database from those for the private
one. Note that this is not usually the case when proxycache is stacked on
a proxy database and stores data locally, but in any case databases
potentially share a number of directives.
