RE: [squid-users] How does your squid cache stacks up?

[Lizzy Dizzy]

Thanks, just to get your opinion, what do you think should be the max size 
of disk cache per squid server? Assuming, CPU and RAM can be easily 
upgraded, average request per sec is 150-200++, typical access pattern (e.g. 
yahoo and those popular websites have higher hits...

Is there any statistics that plots how much byte hit per increase in disk 
cache?

  Improved is not completely defined in that question. It also
depends on users web habbits. If they all visit the same site; the hitrate
will be large versus the other case (for instance).

 For 1500 users, I have about 20GB 'webdata' transferred through SQUID 
each
day with a hitrate of 50%, which saves me 10GB on the Internet link (daily)
