<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Is there any way to tell mapserver to cache the images produced by the WMS service and then replay those on an identical request later to speed things up significantly?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Basically, I want a mapserver backend to Google Maps. Right now, I've gotten two WMS layers similar to Google's Hybrid mode. I do have caching set up so that mapserver isn't being used to draw most of the tiles, but I would like this functionality behind the WMS service itself instead of in front.</FONT></P>
