Hello Friends,
We are going to deploy squid for getting high performance caching
gain
capability.Currently we are going to plan a demo for squid caching
at
one isp place.
isp has 1500-2000 users.
H/w specification:
Quad Core Xeon 3.06 Ghz Processor
32 GB ram
2 TB sata hdd
OS : CENTOS 6
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/KnowledgeBase/Benchmarks
Requirement:
We need to deploy full tproxy squid feature and want to gain high
cache performance.And we are trying squid for cache gain only.
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/Tproxy4
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/BestOsForSquid
So please guide me that what are the perameters , i must have to
look
after to gain more caheing performance.And how much RAM i can assign
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/SquidMemory
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/RAID
to squid.This box is only for squid cache so there is no other
processes occupy memory.And also suggest me other standard squid
parameter , which i must need to tune for enhancing more caching.
A several groups of these tuning directives:

Current Setup :
As per ISP:
for bandwith mgmt., they are using commercial bandwith management
devices as NAS and for AAA they are using radius.
There is a huge amount of traffic that is not HTTP which ISP must deal
with. Recent releases of Squid have several QoS and logging features
that can feed additional data to external management systems in real
time, but overall management is best done outside of Squid.

http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/tcp_outgoing_tos/
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/access_log/
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/Features/LogModules
So for TPROXY , do i need to deploy squid box at bridge mode ? or do
i
deploy it as external device ( only forward web traffic from NAS to
squid box) ?
Traffic needs to pass through the Squid box. That is the only
requirement. See the feature documentation for the above and other
options.
