Hello,
Is there a way to configure NewsCache to cache only the headers and
"pass through" the
articles on to the client without caching the articles?
When tracing a long running discussion backwards, it is common that a
user will mark a
group unread and redownload the group headers. With busy groups, it
is common for the
header-download time to dominate the article retrieval time. In these
cases, it's better to
keep a cached copy of the headers locally and retrieve the articles
straight from the
upstream server.
