Not yet, but we are considering it. I suspect I'll need more memory on
the system running Interscan and squid (it is the only internal system
allowed to talk thru the firewall.) It seems simplest to have Web
Manager listen on a different port and use squid as the child proxy
listening on port 8080 (or whatever your browsers use.) This was you
can use squid's cache, ACLs or a redirector such as squidGuard to cut
down on the number of requests actually being passed thru Web Manager.
This should improve performance at least by a few percent.

As for the way scanned objects are passed back, I would suspect that you
would either need a looong read_timeout tag configured in squid or use
the trickle method with suitably configured quick_abort_* tags to ensure
you don't get partial data in the cache.
