Re: [squid-users] Squid-2, Squid-3, roadmap

I'll come back to one of Mark's earlier points then which seems to have been lost. What will decide on adoption of -2 or -3 is the killer app. Developers roadmaps or sponsors notwithstanding. I think the point was raised that neither roadmap was especially compelling or seemed to yet contain

[squid-users] No pointers for increasing buffer sizes?

2007-06-14 Thread Michael Puckett
Are there no pointers to changing the i/o buffer sizes in squid? Configure parameters maybe, or constants in header files perhaps? Or are buffer sizes computed on the fly? Where do I begin looking in the code? Regards, -mikep

I have never run coss so I can't answer that. However, if you have a dedicated server for Squid with a lot of memory this approach works very well as the disk reads become simply a buffer reattach. -mikep Pablo GarcĂ­a wrote: Is this approach, valid when you use coss as storage ? What would
