OK
I configured rock store (for smaller files) and (later) standard aufs
for others:
cache_dir rock /var/spool/squid3/rock 1024 max-size=32768
#cache_dir aufs /var/spool/squid3 8192 16 256 min-size=32769
are those correct values? (bug 3411 says something about 256B metadata)
Both rock and AUFS stores support large objects so there is no
requirement to split storage based on object sizes. Each store has
various pros and cons, but lack of large object support is not one of
the distinguishing characteristics.
I thought the cons of *ufs/disks is ineffective storage of small files,
while rock is ineffective with big files...
- do I get it right that kid1 is the Master, kid2 is the disker for rock
store and kid3 is the single worker process?
In SMP mode (which, BTW, AUFS store does not support),
could it crash squid instead of complaining?
Master is not a
kid (it is a parent of all kids), the first N kids are workers, the next
D kids are diskers, and the last kid is Coordinator. Please see the
following wiki section for more details.

I read that prior to posting, buuw I was wondering where do those kids get.
If possible, avoid relying on this specific numbering scheme because
mapping kid numbers to kid roles is not a part of a stable Squid
interface IMO.
- restart with "workers 1" worked, but isn't that the default?
Yes, "1" is the default value for the workers directive.
and this is why I wonder we have three kids, both when "workers" commented out
and when set to 1.
