Hello,
I am using squid as a reverse proxy between an apache2 and pound (load
balancer on 161.3.50.16:81, that means same box
My redirect configuration seems fine (It does serves me pages).
Nevertheless, I don't think squid is caching anything :
- /usr/sbin/ab sends me a low rate of service
- I have in /var/logsquid/acces.log lines as follow:
1137929073.158 349 161.3.50.16 TCP_MISS/200 24213 GET

When making a benchmark using ab apache program.
If I got it right, TCP_MISS means it didn't find such thing in the cache
(humm, well it dies is the same URLso hasn't it cached anything ?)
At the same time, if I look at store.log while performing the ab test I
have things like:

So it says "RELEASE" ? Does it means it using the url reference to serve
the client, then releasing the data (trashing the cache each time) ?
I am using a Debian etch testing GNU/Linux server up to date with
official repository. That means Squid Cache: Version 2.5.STABLE12
Here is my squid.conf (stripped of commentaries).

I mean, please point me to the problem so that I can handle it (my web
site is not slow with one user, but what would happen when it'll come
into production ? :x).
