I have noticed a strange behaviour of squid:
I have 4 disks of different size dedicated for cache_dirs in my machine.
With 4 cache_dirs of equal size (small enough to fit all disk sizes) all directories are used evenly.
After increasing to of the cache_dir located on the bigger disks the smaller cache_dirs are no longer used to store new objects.


What is the selection criteria when squid chooses the cache_dir?

Is there any explanation to this behaviour?


There is a parameter called

      store_dir_selection_algorithm

in squid.conf.default , if I remember its name correctly.
Check it out, by reading the comment.

M.
