	The "Varnish" web-accellerator
	-- or
	"How to be 10 times faster without really trying".

>- 1-2 paragraphs about the presentation.

	VG sponsored the development of a web-accellerator called
	"Varnish" because Squid was too slow for them.

	The first half of the talk will introduce Varnish and present
	some of the novel features it brings to the business of
	web-serving.

	The second half of the talk, using Varnish as the example,
	will show ways to get most performance out of modern hardware
	and operating systems.
	
>- 1 paragraph about the speaker.

	Poul-Henning Kamp has been mucking about with computers
	long enough to become an old fart.  When he doesn't renovate
	the FreeBSD kernel, he solves problems for customers at
	reasonable hourly rates.
