Abstract
Disclosed is a system for improving server efficiency by caching intermediate states encountered in generating responses to requests. The results of a mapping from an external name for a resource to an internal name for the resource may be cached as may the response header lines, or the body of the response message. In another disclosed aspect, candidates for intermediate state caching are selected from plain and small files. When the resource involves the product of an executable, another aspect involves delaying parsing request headers until necessary and then only parsing the headers required for generating the response.
