Description:
The slowfs_cache module caches files from a slow filesystem the way nginx caches upstream responses. A location serves its files through the cache, so a request that finds a cached copy no longer touches the slow device, and the usual proxy cache controls apply to it. This port only installs the module sources. The module itself is built by the nginx ports when their SLOWFS_CACHE option is enabled.

www/nginx-module-slowfs-cache: Add New Port

Sources of the slowfs_cache module for the NGINX ports.  The module
caches files from a slow filesystem the way nginx caches upstream
responses, so a request that finds a cached copy no longer touches the
slow device.
