Do you mean using max_object_size=512K for the small_object squid?

Yes, I was thinking exactly of using GDS for the small_object squid,
while LFUDA for the big_file squid!

I was thinking about using ACL regex_url to direct avi,mp3,iso etc from
the small_object (front-end) squid to the big_object (back-end) squid
together with the directive cache_peer_access...do you think I can do it
this way?

which directive?!?!


Once again, may thanks!!!!
