All,
The Fundraising and Mobile teams have been scheming about how we can start to use the capabilities of the Varnish cache in our respective extensions. Mobile already does use ESI, but this would be extensions to it.
As I know multiple other parties have been thinking along the same lines, I've taken the liberty of creating an RfC [1] to discuss the subject / develop requirements / wishlists / gotchas. Ideally this will serve as a method to start retiring Squid, moving the site to Varnish, and then being able to separate the site chrome from site content. *evil laugh*

There's already an RfC on this: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Requests_for_comment/Partial_page_caching

Ah shoot -- well -- I'll merge them then and retire my RfC.
Thanks Kaldari

Not in production. We've done some experimentation with ESI and have some implementations of Varnish ESI in MobileFrontend sitting in a remote branch that by now has suffered serious code drift from master. This is definitely something we'd like to see in production soon, but we are currently having to prioritize other things on our plate higher. We'll make some comments on the RFC :)
