Does this mean that a larger cache file also means an > increase in the CPU usage and will I need to reduce my cache file to > around 9GB to reach a point where the processor is 95% utilised? > > The timespan involved in the two measurements is only about two weeks > and I cannot think of any other changes to the usage that could have had > an impact on how the box is used in that time period. > > Thanks > - Squid version ?
