Squid Efficiency - What else to tweak?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi All,

I've got a squid cache running as transparent proxy on an _very_ old
machine.

P 133 Mhz
128MB Ram
20GB Hard Disk
1GB Cache in aufs
Fedora Core 3

Here are the stats reported by calamaris 2.99
Total amount:           requests  10471 
Total amount cached:    requests   1330 
Request hit rate:       %  12.70 
Total Bandwidth:        Byte   107M 
Bandwidth savings:      Byte  1767K 
Bandwidth savings in Percent (Byte hit rate):         %   1.62 
Proxy efficiency (HIT [kB/sec] / DIRECT [kB/sec]):    factor   0.77 
Average speed increase:                               %  -0.49

Suffice to say, I'm pretty dismayed by it's performance. (granted that
the hardware is substandard.)

Besides the hardware, what else could be done to up the speed? (for one
thing, this little "crap" PC has very slow disk transfer rate.

HAHA... (looking to another crap PC to upgrade this old "crap" haha)
