RE: RE: Overlay Documentation
If a search request is abandoned, back-ldap proxies the abandon request to
the backend server. In this case nothing goes into the cache. Salvaging
such requests to obtain the complete result set will be some kind of
prefetching. A more useful form of prefetching could be fetching more
general filters than requested.

This one is interesting:
"A query Q is cacheable if there is a proxyTemplate with an identical
prototype filter and the same set of requested attributes as Q and it
fetches <= K entries where K is the entry limit specified in the proxyCache
directive."
My question now: What happens with aborted queries ? Let's assume the
queryset reports K entries ( K < sizelimit ) and the client interrupts the
transfer after , lets say , 10% of K. What goes into the cache ? Does the
proxy request the remaining 90% and put it in it's cache anyway ? Could
this be configured by the administrator ? It would be good to be
configurable, because in some environment it could be a performance gain to
store also aborted query results, in some it could be a performance loss.
