Sure, we have 3 of these clustered in an all-sibling reverse-proxy setup. 2 x 3.0 GHz Xeon 64-bit 2 GB DDR-400 RAM 1 x 80 GB WD HDD 3 x 400 GB WD HDD ..running Fedora Core 4 x86_64 Squid is 2.5 STABLE12 with epoll and collapsed-forwarding patches Configured with: --enable-async-io=32 --enable-snmp --enable-htcp --enable-underscores --enable-epoll As you can see we use: htcp, aufs (with noatime options on the mounts) and snmp for monitoring via cacti.

I have a 3.4GHz Xeon with 2GB memory and 100GB cache and with 200+ req/s my CPU is pinned. I have a transparent cache with WCCP and don't use any ACLs except for SNMP. Thanks, Bryan -----Original Message----- From: Gregori Parker [mailto:gregori@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: March 6, 2006 1:16 PM To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Hardware requirements That should be fine, however I would recommend a lot more diskspace for the cache. Each of our servers are 3GHz Xeon, 2GB RAM and 1TB of diskspace - they each push 130mbps of flow without any problems. -----Original Message----- From: Ilja Marchew [mailto:brammator@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, March 06, 2006 4:01 AM To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Hardware requirements We have 2-12 mbits of traffic flow. Is scsi320 72MB + RAM 1GB + Xeon 2.0GHz server enough to proxificate it transparently? Or we need more processor/RAM? Or we need to balance flow between 2-3 servers (because of non-SMP architecture of squid)? Thanks. .
