Dear all,
I read from somewhere that says do not use "service squid restart", rather do the following:
#service squid stop
long wait 30s to 1 minute
#service squid start
Very long wait - half and hour or so if you have about a million urls in the squidguard block lists.
It says the reason is " Do not do 'service squid restart'. Doing so will result in multiple copies of squidguard running, the server will slow to a crawl and the paint on the wall will crack and peel off before the system is working again"
Does it mean my squid will one day not running if I continuosly use restart squid. I didn't know restart is bad and it has became my habit to use restart rather than service start and stop because it is much faster.
