 * I have a rather large WP 2.0.3/Apache2 install (15,000+ posts), and I’m trying
   to wring better performance out of it. I’ve enabled MySQL query caching with 
   the Post-Query Accelerator plugin and WP-Cache2, but my machine is still bogging
   down under fairly light traffic.
 * In a past Zope install, I solved this problem by putting a Squid server in front
   of the Zope machine and caching the requests.
 * This doesn’t seem to work with WordPress. I’m able to funnel requests through
   the Squid machine, but nothing ever gets cached (the Squid logs show every request
   as a TCP_MISS).
 * Does anyone have experience with running WP behind Squid? Is it possible to get
   this working correctly, or does WP not send the proper cache headers?
