After installation of a Squid, web browsers can be configured to use it as a proxy HTTP server, allowing Squid to retain copies of the documents returned, which, on repeated requests for the same documents, can reduce access time as well as bandwidth consumption. This comes in handy for ISP to increase their customer’s network performance and LANs that share an Internet connection.

Although primarily used for HTTP and FTP, Squid includes limited support for several other protocols including Internet Gopher, SSL, TLS, and HTTPS.
