Hello to everybody reading this email, I'm a university student charged with the task of determining the page cost for for http requests in a network that makes extensive use of Squid proxies.
My question is, does Squid store redundant caching information, i.e. if proxy(alpha) went through proxy(beta) to proxy(theta), and proxy(theta) had a copy of the requested http object that was first propagated from proxy(alpha), then does an access.log entry in proxy(alpha) and proxy(beta) specify that BOTH proxies received the following pseudo access.log entry: access.log of proxy(alpha): originator of request: alpha bytes: N name of machine that satisfied the request: theta method: upstream proxy access.log of proxy(beta): originator of request: beta bytes: N name of machine that satisfied the request: theta method: upstream proxy I'm sorry that I have not had the opportunity to look at the access.log files myself for this particular case. I have not been able to get any access.log files yet to test my hypothesis due to not encroaching on the privacy of the users of the network. I hope this is clear enough, if not please tell me. All the best, Phillip
