hi all !
Few days ago I was at Cisco Expo 2007 in Israel, and came across truly
revolutionary technology demo: WAAS.
This technology is able to locally intercept and ack TCP-sessions as
well as do application-layer-specific optimizations, and the
performance win was HUGE - something like 10x-20x fold win ! ! !

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6870/index.html
This results in downloading multi-megabyte files over the Internet in
just few seconds ! (instead of minutes). I was totally shocked when I
saw this in action.
Unfortunately, Cisco and their pricing are out-of-reach for home users.
Is there anything Open-Source on Linux that have similar functionality ?
