Hi Togan,

I'd be afraid using a www proxy with this little amount of hdd space. You
could use squid and tell cron to clean up squids cache very often.  But with
that one of squids major advantages is lost possibly resulting in a slow
connection. Don't forget that your 400MB hd runs with PIO Mode 0 or 1 which
is *really* slow.
