"Public cacheing" has little merit, as efficiency of cacheing decreases when covered population grows beyond some threshold (i.e when diversity of requests overwhelms the cacheing capacity -- process better known as "thrashing"). On the other side, small populations do not produce aggregatable demand patterns. I.e. it looks like that ISP-provided cache servers would be optimal.
Especially so since ISP's have the opportunity to do social engineering on their users by maintaining a "What's HOT" page on their server with daily updates. If you can get people to check in on your WWW reviews first then you have a much greater chance of getting cache hits. Michael Dillon Voice: +1-604-546-8022 Memra Software Inc.
