Hi Guys
I wonder if it would be possible to have a plugin that we can assign TOS/DSCP bits to the objects that are being a cache HIT or maybe object type of video/audio.
such a plugin would give us better performance and control on how to distribute the output of the cache towards clients.
example :
suppose i set traffic to clients each of different bandwidth.
on a router on a link somewhere on some roof top building i can say this client can get miss object traffic of 512Kbit/s and 1Mbit/s of Hits from the cache.
this way if this client is getting a cached object he would get it in 1Mbit/s while his non cached requests would be of 512Kbit/s
hope whoever does this patch plugin takes into consideration the mime type or url of the object being retrieved maybe i want to set audio/video being cached or not to have 768Kbit/s while windows updates and android/iphone apps should take no more than 512kbit/s
bear in mind that this has nothing to do with Origin servers throttling feature request. this is just client side feature set.
much regards
