BTW, I know that Apache has quite extensive caching built into it.

I'm not sure what the API is like for this cache stuff, but it would be
really cool if you could give it a list of pages to cache more aggresively
on your site ie.  the heavily hit dynamic homepage could expire every 5
minutes, etc.

Then again, the caching might be better handled elesewhere in the
foodchain..

Maybe in conjunction with mod_pcgi this could work well.

BTW, is anyone using mod_pcgi at all?
