Hello David,

No, I'm here to stay with varnish and (unless the moderator kicks me out 
for my posting habits :-) with the maillist.
I like varnish - it's much better documented than nginx and, fairly 
unexperienced as I am, got it running in notime - I think it's worth 
more than a single try. Actually it was your earlier post that nearly 
got me defecting to nginx, but in my app's case I don't plan to serve 
anything from the disk (it's just small, yet numerous, GWT-RPC payloads 
originating from a couple of tomcat instances behind). I just need to 
find a way to serve that stuff quickly while maintaining a mangeable 
thread count.

Regards,
G.
