<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I don't have any in my service area that don't have a proxy. Before the<br>
majority of mine all had fiber between the bulk of their schools-<br>
there's a couple that have wireless links because of multiple carriers<br>
and that mess, and a few that have no choice but phone-line based<br>
solutions- I had a few that used dual-level proxies, too. Since they<br>
had, say, 768k/sec back to the board office, we put proxies in local to<br>
save both internal and external slowness. This was when a district would<br>
have 1 T1 line.<br>
<br>
Of course, back then, squid was VERY scary to configure. Not so much<br>
anymore. I suspect some of the boxes they've paid for are indeed squid.<br>
<br>
The last time I saw some stats, schools average about 40% cache hits. It<br>
helps, of course, but 3megs is still not that much for a whole school.</span></font></p>
