IS there away to make squid cache more in memory that on disk. Or prioritize RAM over disk.
Why I asked is that since we know RAM access is way ahead. And 8 GB ram or 4GB ram can allocate maybe towards a ram cache (not ram drive). And forcing squid to almost not use disk. This even gets intersting when you account for parent and sibling paring of 2 similar boxes. So all caching is done over 2 computers in memory. Problems: 1. what is the max ram usage of squid. 2. Is there a way in the current squid version to increase the wait of memory cache objects then if object not found check siblings. I know there is a penalty of shutting down the boxes cleans the caches. But the caches speed will increase as it fills after a reboot. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm Any idea's Roger "way tooo much coffee"
