squid implementation

• “Helper” vs. Library.

• Advantage of a helper:

  • Nice way of plugging in TPACT into Squid.

• Disadvantage:

  • We’d have to implement TPACT twice, or invent a 2nd protocol from helper to squid

• Library has standard API that can be used by any cache or switch implementation
