Yes. > Does it mean that...if i modify the squid.conf like below : > > cache_dir diskd /reiser/squid-cache-diskd/1 10240 32 512 > cache_dir diskd /reiser/squid-cache-diskd/2 10240 32 512 > cache_dir diskd /reiser/squid-cache-diskd/3 10240 32 512 > > , and then execute Squid, are there 3 child processes of Squid like below? > (It's just an example) > > ps -ef | grep squid > root 7123 1 0 18:14 ? 00:00:00 sbin/squid > nobody 7125 7123 0 18:14 ? 00:00:03 (squid) > nobody 7125 7123 0 18:14 ? 00:00:03 (squid) > nobody 7125 7123 0 18:14 ? 00:00:03 (squid) > root 7440 5505 0 18:28 pts/0 00:00:00 grep squid Close, but not quite correct. It will look more like > root 7123 1 0 18:14 ? 00:00:00 sbin/squid > nobody 7125 7123 0 18:14 ? 00:00:03 (squid) > nobody 7126 7125 0 18:14 ? 00:00:03 diskd > nobody 7127 7125 0 18:14 ? 00:00:03 diskd > nobody 7127 7125 0 18:14 ? 00:00:03 diskd There may also be other slave processes to the main Squid process (Pid 7125 in your example), depending on what other features of Squid you use.
