The server is a dell poweredge 2550 with scsi disks.
My cache dir is in a diferent disk --> cache_dir ufs /cache/squid 17000
16 256
What kind of configurations I have to do for my squid not become an I/O
bound?

Without knowing what is your bottleneck we can only guess. Using some
standard systems monitoring tools to get a feeling of what may be your
bottleneck is recommended (sar/vmstat/iostat etc).
But as you did not mention what disks you are using or what kind of
cache_dir you have I would suspect your Squid becomes I/O bound. A
standard install of Squid on a system not designed for running Squid is
good for about 30 requests/s before it becomes I/O bound.. (huge amounts
of memory and fast drives help a bit, but is not a cure).

Henrik
