Hi all, Im about to intall a Squid proxy (Squid2.5Stabler13)on a Dell 2850 dual 3.2 MHz processor Intel Xeon (64 bit machine) with 8 Gig of physical RAM. My objective is to install a machine that can handle let say 3 to 4 thousand concurrent users. Here are my questions? With configuration options "--enable-large-cache-files" can this help the clients to access larger files/webpages stored on the cache directory faster? with my objective of supporting large number of users do I need to increase the Filedescriptor? how can I do it? Any suggestion on how can I prepare a good proxy machine for so many concurrent users? Any Ideas are welcome? Thank you very much, Wennie
