Sound reasonable. Would allow for a large cache for large downloaded objects without exploding in memory usage due to a huge number of small objects being cached.. > However, while in squid there is a possibility to define max-size for > cache_dir, there is NO possibility to define min-size. Correct, but patches (to Squid-3) implementing this would be accepted. > If that is true, the problem could be solved by two ways: > 1. define first-used store_dir_select_algorithm > 2. define min-size option for cache_dir > > which one do you found more interesting/useful? min-size option. > I've looked at sources and I think min-size would be easy to implement... no harder than max-size. for both there will be some objects which are uncertain (where the full object size is not known before the complete object has been downloaded).
