Best performance so far:
Linux + 2.4.18 + ReiserFS + aufs + heap lru

As the Squid developers said, tuning cache replacement is a fruitless 
activity as compared to tuning the file system and the access methods 
(ufs, aufs, diskd).

Tip: Don't use dlmalloc and gnuregex options for the configure script 
anymore as these are slower than the libraries used in recent linux 
distributions.

Tip: mount noatail the ReiserFS disks
