Polipo is designed to be used as a personal web cache or a web cache shared among a few users to boost internet access. Designed to be fast, lightweight and small, it is useful when the system resources for a larger proxy are unavailable. Because of this, it has been put to uses such as a tether on

Polipo will cache the initial segment of a download and can complete it later using Range requests, in case of interrupts.

Polipo is limited to 2G or 4G file sizes on 32 bit systems which will cause errors when serving large requests.

Since Polipo can speak both IPv4 and IPv6, Polipo can be used as a bridge between the IPv4 and IPv6 Internets.
