Polipo On-Disk Cache Shared cache Enable if cache (proxy) is shared by multiple users. To enable polipo on-disk cache cleaning (highly recommended), you should add a cron job in Scheduled Tasks services that will execute /usr/sbin/polipo_purge script. For example to perform disk cache cleanup every day at 6:00 in the morning you should add the following line in Scheduled Tasks "0 6 * * * /usr/sbin/polipo_purge" (without quotes). Disk cache location Location where polipo will cache files permanently. Use of external storage devices is recommended, because the cache can grow considerably. Leave it empty to disable on-disk cache. Truncate cache files size (in bytes) Size to which cached files should be truncated. (default value: 1048576) Truncate cache files time Time after which cached files will be truncated. (default value: 4d12h) Delete cache files time Time after which cached files will be deleted. (default value: 32d) Polipo is a small and fast caching web proxy. General Allowed clients When listen address is set to 0.0.0.0 or :: (IPv6), you must list clients that are allowed to connect. The format is IP address or network address (192.168.1.123, 192.168.1.0/24, 2001:660:116::/48 (IPv6)). In RAM cache size (in bytes) How much RAM should Polipo use for its cache. DNS server address Set the DNS server address to use, if you want Polipo to use different DNS server than the host system. Query DNS for IPv6 false = Do not query IPv6; reluctantly = Query both, prefer IPv4; happily = Query both, prefer IPv6; true = Query only IPv6 Query DNS by hostname false = Never use system DNS resolver; reluctantly = Query DNS directly, if DNS server is unavailable fail to system DNS resolver; happily = Query DNS directly, if host could not be found fallback to system DNS resolver; true = Always use system DNS resolver Syslog facility Log file location Use of external storage device is recommended, because the log file is written frequently and can grow considerably. Log to syslog Parent proxy authentication Basic HTTP authentication supported. Provide username and password in username:password format. Parent proxy address Parent proxy address (in host:port format), to which Polipo will forward the requests. Listen address The interface on which Polipo will listen. To listen on all interfaces use 0.0.0.0 or :: (IPv6). Listen port Port on which Polipo will listen. (default value: 8123) Poor Man's Multiplexing Poor Man's Multiplexing (PMM) is a technique that simulates multiplexing by requesting an instance in multiple segments. It tries to lower the latency caused by the weakness of HTTP protocol. NOTE: some sites may not work with PMM enabled. First PMM segment size (in bytes) Size of the first PMM segment. If not defined, it defaults to twice the PMM segment size. PMM segments size (in bytes) To enable PMM, PMM segment size must be set to some positive value.
