Ah, thanks for the explanation.
One thing is still unclear for me, though: Why is it not a good idea to
have 2+ cache on same disk?
In my understanding (CMIIW), aufs is better for larger objects while
coss is better for smaller objects (or the other way around).

All,
I currently use ufs. Based on discussions here and elsewhere, it seem
better to use aufs+coss.
So, if I want to change over to ufs, is it enough to do the following:
* Stop squid
* Recursive-delete the cache directory
* Run squid -z
* Start squid
Inputs are appreciated. Thanks beforehand :-)
Only if you are taking a portion of the current UFS cache and giving
it to COSS (not a good idea to have 2+ cache on same disk anyway).
To simply change the existing UFS cache to AUFS and add a new disk for
COSS all you need is this:
* partition/format COSS disk
* configure new coss cache_dir in squid.conf
* change ufs tag to aufs in squid.conf
* stop squid
* run squid -z
* restart squid
NP: I only bother stopping to be 100% certain the change to aufs does
not make the -z alter anything in active use. It is probably only a -z
then reconfigure needed.
