If you mean "cache_mem" then you need to go back and read squid.conf's comments and probably the FAQ. On a 512MB machine you should probably have significantly less than 448. I'd be guessing that 64MB would be too much but the references I gave will tell you how much you should have. > > MS Proxy : > > Compaq PIII 256MB > > > > I made some speed access comparisons.
