> I believe that curl does not have client side caching

See:

Specifically:

   curl  -o /tmp/euro.zip -z /tmp/euro.zip
Option o is output, option z says

"Request a file that has been modified later than the given time and date, or one that has been modified before that time."

And:

by sltkr:

"the server doesn't support that header, but since the response does include a Last-Modified header, curl helpfully aborts the transfer if the Last-Modified date is the same as the mtime of the previously downloaded file."
