Hi, I need to setup squid for approx 3000 clients on 30Mbit link. Estimated load is 10000reqs/min. Hardware is Xeon/2.8GHz, 1G RAM, Intel 1000/PRO Ethrenet and 2x36 Ultra320 SCSI disks dedicated for cache. OS is FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE, Squid 2.5STABLE4 installed from ports. Squid was configured for two storage directories using diskd.
The problem is the following: at about 2000reqs/min Squid works fine using ~50% CPU, however when load grows to 3000reqs/min Squid suddenly goes to 100% CPU and system becomes unresponsible at all. Any ideas, suggestions? Thanks in advance, Andriy Korud
