I would also highly recommend using at least a Dual Core CPU, 1.6GHz + for 200 users. CPU performance is also a very important factor for user volume. - Chad E. Naugle Tech Support II, x. 7981 Travel Impressions, Ltd. Marcello Romani

[squid-users] cache performance: flash drive substitute vs. fast hard drive

2008-10-07 Thread Chuck Kollars
Anybody have performance experience (or benchmark results) putting Squid's cache on a Flash Drive? Devices that plug into a disk cable but that contain only what you'd find in a thumb drive are available. They have zero latency and they have much faster transfer speed than a moving disk. On
