WANProxy gets killed every now and again... Think it might be memory usage...

Tiernan,

Note that the monitoring really does kinda suck (sorry, everyone.)
I'd love to hear about your experiences with the improved cache
configuration and the on-disk caching!  Does it resolve your issues?
Note that you should allow for non-trivial overhead when you configure
the size of the RAM cache, because WANProxy will use other memory
above and beyond that.

Juli.
