| Tag Name | range_offset_limit |
| Usage | range_offset_limit (bytes) |
Description
Sets an upper limit on how far into the file a Range request may be to cause Squid to prefetch the whole file. If beyond this limit, then Squid forwards the Range request as it is and the result is NOT cached.
This is to stop a far ahead range request (lets say start at 17MB) from making Squid fetch the whole object up to that point before sending anything to the client.
A value of -1 causes Squid to always fetch the object from the beginning so that it may cache the result. (2.0 style).
A value of 0 causes Squid to never fetch more than the client requested. (default) .
