That's the parameter - it may just be in a different place for your  
distro.  Defaults are how you see them in that line.  I jumped  
straight to a gig, though you may need even more than that if you're  
caching any flash videos, etc.

Hello all,

At BWorks, we've setup a simple squid proxy server, which works great
for what we've been using it for.  I'd now like to increase the cache,
but from browsing the docs[1] I have not found out definitively where
the cache is stored, how big it is, or how to increase the size.

cache_dir seems to be what I'm looking for and a grep for it in the
config file produces this:

# cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 100 16 256

What I find odd is that it is different from what the "official" docs
say and it is commented out.  Before I change it and muck up the proxy,
I thought I'd ask here if the following change will up the cache from
100 MB to 1000 MB:

cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 1000 16 256

Or is there something else I should be aware of?
