Proxy and Caching

Hi,
I am installing Wibiya toolbar on my site. But the .js file for the
toolbar is large (169 KB), so I'd prefer to compress it and deliver to
the clients to make their experience faster.

But I can't store the file locally because sometimes it may get updated
on wibiya's location.

My server has caching (disk) enabled.

Is it possible to cache the requests by ProxyPass ?

Or there's some other method by which Apache will download the file if
and only if it is updated (mod_cache does this for local files).

You can run mod_cache with revers proxy and it will cache the back end files
if you tell it to do. Have a look at mod_expires too for some client side
caching too.

Also have you tried mod_mem_cache instead the disk one?

mod_mem_cache not feasible for me. The server has only 500 MB of RAM
running PHP, Apache, PgSQL.
