No. You can configure big cache_mem to get better memory hit ratio and to avoid some disk I/O, which is probably the most frequent bottleneck of squid caches. > i recommened 64MB because it solved my problem. what problem? > my box also has 4 GB of memory and twin Xeon 2.66 Ghz CPU but i must tell > you that squid doesnt use multiple CPUs as it runs only as a single > procoess.

You can increase maximum_object_size_in_memory when you increase cache_mem. with 4GB of RAM the 64MB meomry cache is quite low and you can increase it, unless you have very big disk cache and the squid process eats 2 GB of RAM also without the memory cache. That should happen if you have >~10 millions of object in the cache. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
