A caching method for decreasing the number of access requests for object files that are forwarded from user computers to a server farm having computers operating with web-based applications via a network. A cache memory at the server farm function as an interface between the server computers and the network infrastructure, via which access requests are forwarded by the computers. The most current popular object files are stored in the cache memory; and the cache memory, in place of the server computers, accepts requests from one of the user computers for an object file. If the object file is stored in the cache memory it is forwarded to the requesting user computer; and if the object file is not stored in the cache memory, the request is forwarded to the server computers.
