DNS Caching for Faster Browsing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Load any web page.
2. Wait for DNS resolution. Take a nap. (GSM/EDGE)
3. Page might be loaded by the time you wake up.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Once a hostname has been resolved by external DNS server, the proxy should
cache the resolved IP address for faster look ups.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0.5 on Windows XP Professional 32-bit laptop
1.0.5 on Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit laptop

Please provide any additional information below.
[Admin Panel - Caching Options]
file = /sdcard/proxoid-dns
dnstimeout = 86400 // number of seconds in 24 hours
dnsentries = 1000

read/write a flat file on /sdcard and make it to where the end user can
specify DNS resolution timeout and number of DNS entries in the flat file
before they get stale or pushed out.

I added a memory cache that is cleaned each time proxoid is stopped.
I did not made real mesure but yes, browsing seems faster.
But I did not understand why : java should have it's own cache ...
